Learn to light a candle in the darkest moments of someone's life. Be the light that helps others see; it is what gives life its deepest significance

Without his likely ever realizing it, Canada Free Press commenter Fred Niziol brought me solace today just as I learned about the tragic deaths of prominent Zimbabwean freedom warrior Roy Bennett, his wife, Heather and Charles Burnett III.

Niziol posted these inspiring words to Facebook: “Learn to light a candle in the darkest moments of someone’s life. Be the light that helps others see; it is what gives life its deepest significance.” —Roy T. Bennett

The Bennetts and Burnett were among five killed in a helicopter crash in a mountainous area in the U.S. State of New Mexico, Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2018 when only one person survived.
