Do you wonder why people have candlelight dinners? 

I've never had one but I do wonder. Does the food taste better because you would taste better with your visuals dimmed? Maybe it's not about the food. Food had always been an excuse for people to meet, as if you need a reason to sit down to have a proper conversation. Maybe it's looking at each other over the flickering flame, seeing instead of merely looking. Or maybe it's the atmosphere, the occasion, the celebration. But then I guess it's the person you are dining with. Isn't that mostly the reason, love. If love could be the reason, why is it not the answer?
