"The Fourth Candle"

Writer's picture: Murali RavadaMurali Ravada

It was night time. There was a dark shadow all around. Only one room was published. There were four candles burning.


The four candles started talking among themselves after seeing solitude. The first candle said, "I am Peace" - When I see this world, I feel very sad. Abruptness, robbery and violence are prevalent everywhere. In such a situation it is very difficult to stay here. I can't live here anymore". Saying this, the candle was extinguished.

The second candle also started speaking to her mind, "I am a Believer". I think that lies, deception, fraud, dishonesty are going to end my existence. This place is no longer fit for me. After saying this, the second candle also extinguished.


The third candle was also sad. She said, "I am Love". I can burn every moment for everyone. But now no one has time left for me. The sense of selfishness and hate is taking my place. People adid not have any feelings of love towards their loved ones. Now it is not just for me to endure it It would be okay for me to go. After saying this, the third candle also extinguished.


The third light was extinguished when a child entered the room. He was very sad to see the candles extinguished. Tears started flowing from his eyes. He said with a sad heart, "How can you go dark in my life like this. You had to burn completely till the end. But you left me, What shall I do now?"


Hearing the child, the fourth candle said, "Don't worry, boy. "I am Hope" and I am with you. While I am burning, you can burn other candles with my flame.


Hearing the talk of the fourth candle, the child was impressed. He republished Peace, Faith, and Love with Hope.


Moral:

Time is not same in life. Sometimes it is bright, sometimes it is dark. When the darkness comes in life, the mind becomes restless, the faith starts to waver and the world starts looking alien. Then light the lamp of hope. As long as the lamp of hope keeps on burning, there can never be darkness in life. Everything can be found in life on the strength of hope. So never leave hope .
