Today I am grateful
for a cherished family tradition
of sharing the company
of a lit candle in the kitchen,
especially when preparing holiday dishes.
The flame reminds me
of loved ones who have gone on before me.
While I may miss them,
terribly at times,
I believe they are still near
and holding me in their heart,
just as I do them.
My special angel candleholder
was a gift from a dear friend
at a difficult time
during a blessing
before a medical procedure
and my "Auntie Em" mixing bowl
was a wedding gift.
(I still love it!)
