I asked the moon if he was ever jealous of the sun because without its rays he would be none. He replied, “No you silly fool cant you see, I get to see lovers bask in my glow while he watches people sleep under a tree. For its not what makes me that sets me free, but what I do with it that lets me rest peacefully. “

I long for the days the moon flanks our gracious new beginnings and magical everlasting endings; when “living life” is no longer a catch phrase, but a definition riding parallel to our dreams. Sand and sun, replace stress and strife, begging for company as they pull us along. We no longer seek refuge because we have learned that a body of water’s reaction is perfect in every way, and even the sparrow is flawlessly taken care of. I have seen days such as these come and go as if teasing me, when in reality they are teaching me. Teaching me that the sun is always closer than I realize that the nights are only as dark as I perceive them to be and, life has been constructed of boundless opportunities that present themselves in wonderfully exciting ways.
