Share Your World: Candles & Fire

1–2 minutes

This one is a bit eerie and creepy to me. I dislike fire and that includes candles.

  1.  Are you prepared for a power cut?

    No, and yes. It’s happened before of course, and we’re prepared with usually full batteries on our phones and laptops, so we won’t be bored endlessly until it’s over. It’s a no regarding lightning candles and having a flashlight/torch. The phones these days come with a flashlight and that works great.
  2.  Do you prefer candles or torches when there is no electricity?

    Absolutely a flashlight!!! No candles are welcome here.
  3.  Do you use scented candles or wax melts?

    Neither. I hate candles and live fire. I do not want to see hurt pets, a burned down home or burns, please.
  4.   Do you find a meal by candlelight romantic?

    Nope. I hate fire and candles make me nervous. A few Hue lights, or dimming lights is another story, though.

Gratitude

There are signs that shit is starting to turn around, but I can’t control when that will happen, so for now I have to wait until others fix these issues for me. I am still grateful for so many things as usual.

Hi, I’m Fedora Pancakes—a curious soul with a love for all things unconventional. I spend my time finding humor in life’s little absurdities, perfecting the art of pancake flipping (metaphorically and literally), and crafting stories that mix wit, whimsy, and a touch of mischief. Some might call me eccentric, but I prefer to think of myself as creatively unique. Life’s too short to be boring, so I embrace the strange and the silly—always with a metaphorical fedora on my head.

    Thanks for joining in. It has been surprising how many people are against candles as you are, and I respect that.

      I’m glad I’m not alone. In my circle of friends and family it seems that candles and risking fires are the norm. And few think about the health of their pets! Pets and fire do not mix well, right?😱😱😱

        No, pets and fire do not mix. However, we’ve found that some natural oils are soothing for Maya, especially when she was young and we had fireworks going off. Now she’s not bothered buy them, or thunderstorms.

    I agree with you about candles. In fact, in the complex where we live, they are not permitted. Candles are pretty and romantic, but there are alternatives that are safer.
