Before I begin with day 159, I must defer you to our Terms and Conditions .

In several religious practices, it is tradition to light a candle to honor the dead. The candle is lit and stays lit until it is burned out. This commemorates the passing on of the individual.

Day 159: Light a candle to honor the dead
Honor someone by lighting a candle in their honor. It does not have to be a relative, or even a friend, the candle may be lit to honor anyone. By lighting a candle not only do you honor someone in their passing, but you also have made a place in your own memory for them.

When you light the candle, choose a small tea light, as the burn time is generally only 8-10 hours. Also, do not leave the candle unattended for risk of fire.
