CANDLE
When we went out of the church I asked my friend for a snack. He declined because he had to pick-up his kids from a relative-caretaker. So we parted ways but after a while he followed me while I was I buying candles. He was quite surprised but I told him I have been doing this for a long time...
It was early January of this year when I went to light candles for the first time at the image of Mama Mary located beside the church. I was told to try to light candles so She may grant my personal intentions. It was already dark and as I approached I have noticed that there were only few candles lighted left. To my surprise there was a lady crying while lighting the candles she brought with her. I can hear her sobbing. I thought of lighting the candles the next day instead so I may not 'disturb' the lady but since I was almost there, I continued and light the candles I brought. I wanted to have a glimpse of the face of the lady but as I turned my head, I could only see her hair covering her entire face. My prayer was quite long and she continued sobbing. Before finishing my prayer I noticed that the lady had left. Due to my curiosity, I tried to follow her but she is gone. The walkway is about 50 meters and there is no other exit point except for that... In a matter of 5 seconds, she's gone! I could hardly believe it... I felt like all the hairs in my body have gone wild... I then named her The CRYING LADY.
I did not tell my friend about the Crying Lady. Instead, I told him that I've been doing this with the hope that She will grant my intensions. After that, we went home...
