Lighting my Candle

"The soul of man is the candle of God" (Proverbs 20:27) This is a perfect metaphor of the relationship to God. We, humans, work to prepare the candle. We do our best to create a good candle to offer to God, so that he may, at the proper time, lite it. While waiting for this to happen we should  pray/ask for His Intervention and continuously work on ourselves in order to keep improving. It doesn't matter how good we are: it's not a granted result that God will lite our candle. The right time it's all up to Him! I summarised the process: 1. Building the Candle (Your Part) ​You cannot light a flame without a physical vessel. "Building the candle" means doing the practical, human work to be and become the best of you. The Wax: represents your character traits—even the "messy" ones. ​The Wick: represents your will and your daily efforts. ​The Placement: means putting yourself in the right environment to be "lit." 2.

Wings

What an awkward day!
Strong inexplicable pressure inside, everything pulsing, whatever I approached didn't work, growing frustration and uneasiness... 

At some time in the afternoon I gave up. I took out a rune for me: Dagaz: the passage from one state to another... But incredibly, tooking it out, I saw the rune was broken! Couldn't understand how possibly the stone would break in the bag I keep them!

Finally I decided to lie down. What a strange thing happened. I felt myself suspended in some dark cosmic environment. It was so calm and totally still, motionless. I realised then my entire undefined being was in total intense fibrillation. As if composed by millions of energy sparks in constant movement, so that it looked like a Kaleidoscope of lights, glittering, changing colours and brightness.

I understood that I just needed to accept, welcome, this twinkling being who was me. I didn't need to move or do anything, as the universe around would naturally adjust to me...

At some time I felt my shimmering shape becoming taller and thinner. I realised the body looked like a rod with something attached that gave me the idea of a flag, somehow fluttering wildly while strongly glowing. I perceived the "flag" being attached to the upper part of my back.

Eventually I realised the flag was in reality wings, still stuck together, but trying to liberate themselves and become two distinct wings.

Me, within that shimmering being, in total surprise and awe. Realising I had wings! I felt them strongly attached to my back, between the shoulders... 

When I got up, the feeling of the wings continued, and still now that I am writing, they are still here!
