To me this picture captures the essence of fire.

It's actually a pretty special fire :) It's the bonfire we lit on my 21st Birthday get-together. 

Has anyone ever used fire as a metaphor for youth? They must have, though I've never seen an example. 

It's not just about venturing out in the woods, living 'off the land', getting close to nature. 

It's also about things that don't last, that are gorgeous while they exist, but also fragile and fickle at the same time. A fire can scorch you, warm you, light your way... it will dance for you, but only to its own rythm. A fire is moody, it is dangerous. A fire is only sensed, not held close or captured. 

A fire is free. 

A fire is alive.

Come on baby, light my fire.
