In the quiet, dark church only this one thin candle burns. Sometimes that's enough to last the whole evening.

Xenia Campbell That single candle really does make the darkness feel peaceful rather than empty. Thanks for sharing the photo.
Христо Христов This one candle reminds me how little it takes to not feel alone in silence. Thanks for the picture.
Роман Зайцев In such silence, one candle makes you focus on prayer, and not on the emptiness around. Thanks for the photo.
Дмитрий Васильев In such silence, one candle immediately brings to mind how the Lord remains nearby even in complete darkness. Thanks for the photo.
Helena Schmidt Yes, this one candle makes the silence almost tangible, as if you could hear your own breathing. Thanks for the picture.
