THE POWER OF ONE

"The light of one candle cannot be extinguished by all the darkness of the universe!"



THE POWER OF ONE. It is a shame that sometimes just one person's meanness can eclipse the happiness, peace, and goodwill of two hundred others. The malevolence or mean-spiritedness of just one person can ruin an otherwise beautiful day for many.

Then I realize that the moon - a tiny rock, dead, void of color, of life, of energy, or any light of its own, can eclipse even the sun. This happens every so often, and we notice, for we cannot help but see - and then go on with our lives as we always have. 

I rejoice that the converse is true as well - the light from a single candle cannot be extinguished by all the darkness of of the universe. So if I can, in the time that remains, I would rather be a candle than a rock.
