In a small village nestled in the heart of the countryside, there was a small cottage on the outskirts of town. The cottage was old and weathered, but it had a charm to it that drew people in. Inside the cottage lived an old woman named Margaret. Margaret had lived in the cottage for as long as anyone could remember, and she had become somewhat of a legend in the village.
One cold and blustery winter evening, the villagers noticed something peculiar. In the window of Margaret’s cottage was a single candle burning brightly. It was an unusual sight, as no one had seen a candle in the window of the cottage for many years. The villagers began to wonder what the candle meant.
The next day, several of the villagers went to Margaret’s cottage to inquire about the candle. Margaret welcomed them in and offered them some tea. She explained that the candle was a signal to her husband, who had passed away many years ago. Every year on the anniversary of his death, Margaret would light a candle in the window to guide his spirit home.
The villagers were touched by Margaret’s devotion to her husband, and they decided to honor his memory by lighting candles in their own windows on the anniversary of his death. That winter evening, the village was aglow with the soft glow of candles, each one burning as a tribute to Margaret’s love for her husband.
As the years passed, the tradition continued, and the village became known for its annual Candlelight Night. Every year on the anniversary of Margaret’s husband’s death, the villagers would light candles in their windows to honor his memory and to show their respect for Margaret and her love for her husband.
Margaret eventually passed away, but the tradition she had started lived on. To this day, on the anniversary of her husband’s death, the villagers light candles in their windows as a tribute to Margaret, her husband, and the enduring power of love. And if you listen closely on a quiet winter evening, you can still hear the soft flicker of a candle burning in the window of Margaret’s old cottage, a symbol of the love that never dies.
