A Candle for the Departed

Across cultures, the soft glow of a candle is a bridge between here and beyond.
Families once lit a flame in the window to guide loved ones home — not in body, but in spirit. The belief was simple: as long as the candle burned, love did too.

When the light finally faded, it wasn’t an ending, but a reminder that the heart keeps glowing quietly even after goodbye.

If you ever light a candle in someone’s memory, know this — its flame may be small, but its warmth travels farther than we ever could.
