Challenge 129: CANDLELIGHT

Humans have been using candles for a long, long time. Even in settings where candles are no longer necessary for light, they often play a role in everyday life – tall candles lit for religious celebrations, tiny tea lights on the table at fancy restaurants, or a delicately scented candle burning on a quiet night in at home. Candles are often considered to be soothing and romantic; many date nights, after all, start with candlelight, and so do relaxing evenings after a bad day. But candles can also indicate that something has gone wrong. Most of us don’t depend on candles for light or heat anymore – but if the power goes out, or a camping trip goes wrong, we may not have any other choice! Candlelight can indicate a world where modern conveniences, for whatever reason, are gone. Write a story about candlelight. BONUS GOAL: “Smells like home." If your submission includes this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!
