The Fairytale

The candle bursts into a fiery splash just before it dims and goes out. How often have I seen this? How comforting this is. The warmth, the richness, the fairytale brightness is exciting even knowing that it may be a precursor to some unknown state.

If this moment seems too good to be true, who am I to judge it?

Rather than claim some sophisticated knowledge I don't have I would rather bask in it; take at face value the beauty and the mystery of this moment and enjoy the adventure while it is mine.

Whatever the reason, if there even is a reason, I am so blessed by this time in my life I can hardly believe it is real.

But it is as real as the moment.
