I am lighting candles around the house this morning for a friend who had surgery on Tuesday, a friend who is moving, and another friend having surgery today. And while lighting these candles is all about intention, about sending good thoughts to these specific people I am holding in my mind, I can't help but notice that the light extends to me too.Buddhists believe their meditation practice is done on behalf of all beings everywhere. If you need a little light today, consider these candles lit for you.
