A Poetic Connection

Etched into the oak is the evocative lines, "

"But Mousie, thou art no thy-lane,
In proving foresight may be vain:
The best laid schemes o’ Mice an’ Men
          Gang aft agley,
An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain,
          For promis’d joy!"

...by famed Scottish poet Robert Burns (To a Mouse, written in 1785). The sentiment resonates universally, highlighting that despite our efforts to control outcomes, life’s uncertainties often disrupt our plans. This quote resonates with the simple yet profound ritual of lighting a candle—a quiet moment to pause, reflect, and create a welcoming glow.
