Light in Darkness


 Law of Fair Exchange

I met a stranger in the night

Whose lamp had ceased to shine;

I paused and let him light

His lamp from mine.

****

A tempest sprang up later on

And blew the world about;

And when the wind was gone,

My light was out.

****

Then back again the stranger came;

His light was glowing fine.

He held again the precious flame

And lighted mine.

As winter is approaching I am craving the light. Candles come out as I sip my tea. It reminds me of the need for light when life is most dark. The light, even if it is only a flicker, brings hope to my heart for days of healing, laughter, quiet times, and times spent with dear ones.

May you find glimmers of light in these dark times. May these little signs of light shine on you and bring hope to your heart.

Sending love,

Marilyn
