The Lantern That Remembered Every Face

Light That Refused to Forget

By GoldenSpeechPublished about a month ago 1 min read

A wandering traveler carried a lantern that illuminated only when near someone he had once loved or helped.

When the lantern finally dimmed, he realized he had never been alone; kindness had lit a thousand paths behind him.
