Had been to a restaurant to dine by candle light.A journey which was meant to be one of food for the palate transformed into one which was food for thought. Observed the flame 🔥 of the candle. A flickering candle flame is a most distracting fickle by nature and it is constantly in a state of flux . It reflected the turbulence in my mind which is always as restless as the candle flame. The flame stabilised. The candle and it’s flame came to terms . But my mind was still restless ,I was unable to experience the moment to the brim. I closed my eyes and meditated on the flame of the candle. I could conquer that turbulence in my mind and experience the silence and stillness within me. When a flame can be at peace with itself , why not the human mind? I felt ashamed. The mind enjoyed this dish of wisdom . I went ahead satisfying the demands of my taste buds.Returned home wiser . 🙏🙏❤️❤️.
