    I really , really like this one!!!! What a picture of life when we are hurt and just try to hide from the world. For so long i have wanted to just live in the shadow of darkness instead of lighting my candle. I have the match out , just need the courage to strike it!

    Loved the quote and your words did it justice. I shall remember this when my days are dark, light a little candle. Well done.

    So many things I've clouded,
    Shut out the sunshine's rays...
    I've forgot to light my candle,
    On the darkest of my days

    This is so true. We forget the good/lighter
    part of life whilst sitting in darkness. An
    eye opener write...great write!

    I think it marvelous to receive inspiration from such a small quote. i really enjoyed this. it sort-of reminded me of the children's song: "this little light of mine, im gonna let it shine ect"

    you can apply this outlook to our own lifestyles and struggles, or even use it as an illustration for religious views.

    either way, very well done
