Fire does not seek out people to warm themselves by it's warmth...
It simply BURNS!
Fire,
one of the most ancient things known to man.
Sitting by the fire was/is/has not been not merely a practical thing.
It is always about the MYstery
For hundreds of thousands of years, we have sat by the fire and told each other stories, and by the fire we felt safe, and it drove away the dark.
The physical and the metaphysical.
When we learned to start a fire, humanity started jumping leaps and bounds and quantum heaps.
I love candles. I have always loved candles; when I had a choice to buy food or candles,
I would buy candles and trust that food will come.
On my darkest days, upon waking up in the madness and the badness of my own mind
The first thing I would do is light candles.
and bring in the LIGHT.
And on many such mornings, I woke up in desperation and horror, realizing I didn't have a lighter.
nor matches nor any way to start it.
I vowed that day I would never run out of lighters.
So this idea came.
No matter what you decide to use my magical lighters for
May they be a reminder of your inner light.
and that no matter how dark the night
The dawn WILL COME!
And this is not a cliché.
I have spent years, which felt like an eternity in the darkness of space; I would never want anyone to visit.
And somebody left a light on.
Somebody lit the candle.
that got me through that long, dark
night.
May these magical lighter remind you daily, each time you light them up, that :
MAGIC IS BEAUTY
and that BEAUTY IS MAGIC
and no matter how hard things get
personally
or collectively.
The divine spark in your heart can never go out.
And if it seems like it did…
light a candle
sit by the fire
and let it drive away the darkness.
And warm up your gentle, sacred, loving
heart.
Get a lighter and if you know someone who really badly needs it..
I will give you one for free to give it to him or her.
I am Prometheus, (with all due respect and honour to the Great Ones) I did not steal the fire from the Gods
it was never theirs anyway...
Well it is a little bit more complicated and we do not want to offend the Gods
but that is a story I will tell you around the fire
another
time.
Blessing of love and Light
and
Beauty!
Amen ,
