There is always a candle

Hello fellow readers and writers, its been a long time. Well now I could go around giving excuses but frankly I have been having a writers block, doubting my self worth, my writing, am I good enough? Blah blah blah. You know writers stuff. But now since that you are here reading this, I think it is worthwhile just to keep continuing writing.

We have been recently facing a lot power cuts in my town and one day it so happened our back up ran out. So we all moved to the terrace. I went up there and as it is my favorite pass time I looked up to the sky, watching the night sky in all its glory. But it was a new moon ,it was cloudy and the stars werent there. It was utter darkness and none of the house had lights on.

I looked around, breathing just the cold wind with no light in sight to guide my vision when I caught the glimpse of light just light. It was coming from a tiny window, from the house opposite our appartments. The candle was burning with a flame diminished by the distance. In a normal night it would have been insignificant, even the stars could have outshone it, but not today. Today in this utter darkness that little candle had light up the night.

And then I realized that in one way or the other, there is always a candle.
