How can lighting a candle be challenging?

Sometimes, I just have to laugh! A short time ago, I lit a candle. This is something that I often do. The funny thing is this, this time I remembered to tilt the candle so that I could reach the wick with the match. This went very well and it was much easier for me to light the candle.

The funny thing is, I remember doing the same thing the other day, but I didn’t remember to tilt the candle so I had trouble reaching the wick. What I did, was use a piece of dry spaghetti and it worked. It is so strange how my brain works! Sometimes I can remember things perfectly and other times not so much.
