Lights at Christmas








There are dark shadows on the earth, but its lights are stronger in the contrast.

- Charles Dickens

One of the things I love most about this season of chilled, earlier nights is the twinkly lights that cast the most delicate glow that is warm and comforting. Candles burn warm against the cold environment. The nights are dark this season. The air is chilly. The lights contrast it all with the loveliest glow, to warm the soul.

Let's light the candles and watch the flames flicker and burn, unafraid of being blown out. The light reaches outward and doesn't try to hide itself.

Let's be a light this season. Let's think about ways we can reach out to someone who may just need a kind word of encouragement and reminder of the light that we know.
