The night candle lighter.
The night candle lighter.
There was once a man who stayed up every night. Couldn't sleep. His thoughts went around: he saw the abandoned, the poor, the sick, the loneliness around him. He felt that the world was full of pain, and that weight would not allow me to sleep.
One night, when he was rotating again,
He went out to the yard. In the darkness, only the stars blinked, and he felt the darkness fell on his heart.
Then he saw something. In a neighbor's window, a weak candle shone. The neighbor's old woman lit it every night because she was afraid in the dark. And one suddenly understood that his vigil may not be a curse, but a gift.
Because whoever is up at night notices the other candle. And maybe you can light one so that someone else does not feel so alone in the dark.
Since then, if he couldn't sleep, he was no longer bitterly watched, but considered himself the night candle lighter. It is not the job to drive the dark - but to indicate: there is light and there is,
who keeps it.
👉 Lesson:
Sometimes restless nights also have a mission. Vigilance is an opportunity to see the tiny lights in the dark - and to be one of them yourself.
