light a candle for some miracle
One of my best friends with whom I have completely sort of ignored these past few weeks just told me a wonderful story... she was on her way home from a "get together" we had and she saw a woman with her 4 year old son having seizure in the middle of the street. the car before her had stopped to help and as soon as she saw the man get out of the car she got out of her car as well. Apparently the woman was epileptic. The woman did not ask for money, and neither did she ask for her to be brought to the hospital. all the woman wanted was to get some rest and finally get to sell the candles she made in Baclaran. "Maybe to light a candle for some miracle" my friend uttered.
makes me think... life is so much more that what i think it is.. if her faith of lighting a candle despite all life's tragedies can make her better, hoping for some miracle.. then i would rather be her.
