Candle Light

I have been to many candle light services over the years and this one was a disappointment. I have never been disappointed before. It makes me sad. I was expecting it to be like others have been. Where there is the soft glow of candle light as we sing or listen to others sing/ play/ read. I was expecting to be reminded of past Christmases and those special moments but instead I was thinking about how odd things were and how I could not understand what that girl was singing. that there was candle wax burning my hand and I was so tired I wished I was home. What has happened to the wonder, the anticipation and just having things well practiced and performed? Maybe I just need some more sleep, I feel a headache coming on and I wish I could just stop the world for a bit so I could catch my breath and just be in a moment and be able to dream again.
