candle

112210


If I make myself sit still, light a candle, breathe in deep, I smell the aroma and it puts me at ease.  I feel the warmth of the flame and the longer I stare I feel myself drawn in, deep into the melted wax and trapped like the bubble of air, unable to move, unable to fret.  Only able to relax and breathe.  Protected, safe.

  1. Lovely image Lisa. There is something about flames that draws you in, almost mesmerising you. It's a bit like sitting in front of an open fire - difficult to drag your eyes away. So, perfect as a meditating tool.

  2. Love it Lisa, it is beautiful. I love candles. I love the way they flicker and wave. I love the way they smell. There is just something about them that is so very relaxing.
