Shabbat shalom!

There is something magical in the women's mitzvah to light the Shabbat candle. Something that is deeper and more meaningful than many of the men's mitzvot, at least in my eyes. And it isn't the man's envy, who wants more mitzvot, as from time to time this responsibility falls on me with no female family members around.

This happened tonight as well. I love doing this mitzvah. I generally just love the eve of Shabbat!
