Rest in Peace

In a fine evening, the light house keeper was mounting the stairs to reach the top of the light house. He was holding a small candle to direct his way. As he needs to pass several steps to reach on top, he was careful not to bear down the candle light. On the way, the candle asked him a small question, “where are we going? And why are we going there?”. The man answered in a low voice, ‘We are going on top of this light house. We need to do a very big mission there. Our mission is to guide the ships sailing through the ocean. They organize their route by following the direction shown by the light in the light house. “

Listening him, the candle became confused and it asked, “How is it possible? My small light will give a very vague view and may misguide huge ships. They will misunderstand me as a bee and so I don’t think that I can provide direction guidance to huge ships. ” The LH Keeper had a distinctive voice while answering this question. He said, “It is your thought, Let your small beam to continue its light, I will take care of the rest.”

After some time they reached on top of the light house. A large lamp was placed on top and the LH keeper lightened that lamp with the light from the small candle. It was a big light that could guide huge ships to find its way and direction. Looking at the bigger light in the lamp, the candle could not believe it eyes. It could not even think that it had such a huge potential. It’s mind was full of self esteem and shortly after that the LH keeper turned off the candle light, but the candle light was in peace in its last moment.
