 The 4 Candles.
The 4 candles burned slowly.Their ambiance was so soft you could hear them speak.
The first candle said,i am Peace,but these days nobody wants to keep me lit.
Then peace,s flame slowly diminshes and goes out completely.
The second candle says,i am faith,but these days i am no longer indispensiable.
Then faiths flame slowly diminishes and goes out completely.
Sadly the third candle spoke ,i am love and i havent the strength to stay lit any,longer.People put me aside and dont understand my importance.They even forget to love those who are nearest to them.
And waiting no longer love goes out completely.
.........Suddenly.........
A child enters the room and see,s the 3 candles no longer burning.
The child begins to cry,,why are you not burning?You are suppose to stay lit until the end.
The 4th candle spoke gently to the little child.
Don't be afraid,for i am ..Hope..And while i still burn we can re-light the other 3 candles.
With shinning eyes the child took the candle of..hope..and lit the other 3 candles.
With Hope no matter how bad things look and are,
Peace,Love ,and Faith can shine brightly in our lives..
