Interesting that when I light my candle is when I stare into the flame and remember those I've lost. I am not afraid of tears.

I am not afraid of tears either as my sister always tells me that "tears are a safety valve"

This candle is beautiful. I had one very similar that I bought in Orlando (FL) many years ago. It melted a particularly hot year when we still lived in Monte Carlo. We were not home, the house was so hot that it melted.

@CarolDM I looked at candle shops but I didn't buy it, it occurred to me to make it myself, more precisely to pour and insert the scent I want..not only is it more economical for me, but as you know I like creative work, I like to create. I agree, small things are sometimes so big..

I love it!! That candle is beautiful! No. I don't take anyone for granted. Lighting a candle is a nice way to remember your loved ones. Ever since you explained your member name, every time I see it I think of both you and your son. That's also a wonderful way to remember him.
