I Light This Candle for You…

Tonight I light this candle for you…

You who are broken and worn,

May the light reach you and brighten you soul.

Tonight I light this candle for you…

You who are at war,

May this light lighten your spirit and bring you home

Tonight I light this candle for you…

You who are never at fault,

May you realize those you have left behind in your desperation to be right 100% of the time

Tonight I light this candle for you…

You who have too much pride to admit,

May you be peacefully humbled and learn to bend

Tonight I light this candle for you…

You who are broken and learning to mend,

May this light speed your progress and free your spirit

Tonight I light this candle for you…

You who sacrifice willingly

May your labor be rewarded and grace lighten your load

Tonight I light this candle for you…

You who have spoken ill against another,

May you know your connection to the greater good and be reminded of what matters most.

Tonight I light this candle for you…

You who are seeking a new way to live

You who seek peace

You who search for resolve

You who realize that you are your own reality

You who realize there is more to this life than what we are handed

Tonight I light this candle for you…

I pray you feel the heat within.

I pray you see a vision of truth, a moment for clarity that will push you forward

I pray you have peace in your heart

I pray you offer forgiveness freely

I pray you seek out those relationship soured, that you might mend them on this great hour.

I light this candle for me that I might find this path shared.

You by my side, as we walk together with acceptance and trust, peace and forgiveness.

May we find understanding and we walk long and true.

Blessed Solstice from me to you!
