candling （動詞， intr.）
：在你生日的時候盤點你的生活的習慣——讓它成為一種對你迄今為止所有目標、品質、人際關係和成就的內部公投——這讓你想在那天穿得漂亮一點，就好像你站在一個每年開會一次的假釋委員會面前，裁決你從童年中獲釋（The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows， 約翰·科尼格，2021/2022）

𝑭𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝑨𝒓𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒕: Godefridus (Godfried) Schalcken (1643-1706), Dutch genre painter and portraitist, particularly noted for his night scenes and mastery in reproducing the effect of candlelight, “Egg Candling,” oil on panel, c. 1665-69 [Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, “Das Mädchen, ein Ei gegen das Licht haltend”]
𝒄𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 (𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒃, 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒓.)
: the habit of taking stock of your life on the occasion of your birthday—letting it serve as a kind of internal referendum on all your goals and qualities and relationships and accomplishments so far—which makes you want to dress just a little nicer that day, as if you’re standing before a parole board that convenes once a year to adjudicate your release from childhood (The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, John Koenig, 2021/2022)
