Worldwide Candle Lighting Day dec.10, 2017

Yesterday night I lit up a candle for my beautiful daughter, missed since last year.

It was stormy and snowing very hard.. but it was beautiful at the same time. Snow everywhere.. but my hands got to cold and I didn't make to much photo's.. ;-)

For hundreds of years, lighting a candle has been a way to show respect for those that have died. This beautiful gesture shows that although someone may be gone from this world, their memory will endure, and the light of their flame will continue to inspire and guide others. Worldwide Candle Lighting Day is a celebration of solidarity and memory. It’s a day on which people around the world gather to light candles for children who have died and to show that they will always be loved and never forgotten. The candles are lit at the same time in every time zone, meaning that a consistent warm glow passes around the planet for a full 24-hour day.
