Four candles slowly burned
The ambiance was soft, One could almost hear them talking....
The First candle said:
"I am Peace!"
"The world is full of anger and fighting.
Nobody can keep me lit!"
Then the flame of Peace went out completly.
The Second candle said.
"I am Faith"
"I am no longer indispensable.
It doesn't make sense that I stay lit another moment"
Just then a breeze softly blew Faiths flame.
Sadly the Third candle began to speak.
"I am Love"
"People don't understand my importance so they put me aside.
They even forget to love those who are nearest to them."
And waiting no longer Love's flame went out.
SUDDENLY
A child enters the room and saw the Three unlit candles.
"Why aren't you burning?
Your supposed to stay lit till the end"
Saying this,the child began to cry.
Then the Fourth candle answered
"Don't be afraid"
"I am Hope"
While I am still burning we can re-light the other candles."
With shining eyes the child took the candle of Hope and lit the other candles.
The Greatest of these is Love...
...But the Flame of Hope should never go out in your life.!
With Hope each of us can live with Peace,Faith and Love.
This story was sent to me today by a brother of light.
I hope this may give anyone who reads this the courage to carry on.
Never give up when all else fails there is always Hope.
May you all be Blessed,Loved and Protected.
