We have a box of "Strike on the Box" matches in the cupboard over the stove. They are what I use to light candles when the house smells like broccoli or fish. I've been thinking about them lately.
I heard a tease on the radio for some upcoming show. The guy was saying that everybody could be compared to some kind of flame--book of matches, candle, etc. It was just the preview, so there wasn't any explanation or follow up, but I immediately thought of my matches that can only be lit with a little help from the box.
I hope I'm not "Strike on the Box" matches. I don't think I am. I hope when I need or want my "light" to shine, that it's not the kind of light that can only be ignited in one place, in one way.
I guess it's like hoping there's enough oil in my lamp to be considered wise instead of foolish.
