PERMISSION

"I am the sunlight to the soil of my own soul."
~ Muriel Strode ~

I like the idea of scented candles.
To have some delicious fragrance wafting through the breezes of the house
Sounds heavenly.
And whenever I encounter some kind of gourmet candle, I smell it, and, if it smells good,
Take out my wallet and envision the delight.
I have done this countless times,
Only to get home, light it up, and within minutes, blow it out and pack it away,
because it feels too strong, or too sweet, or too something.
This is not to say scented candles aren't wonderful-
They well may be... for others,
Just not for me.

It's ok to be who I am.
