Looking Up

"We are born to kiss the stars 

and dance with the Moon."

Avijeet Das

Born in the month of June, I became a Moon Child.  For as long as I can remember, I have deeply loved the moon and all of the stars.  Growing up in one of the largest cities, tall skyscrapers and nestled buildings narrowed my vision.  On a small patch of common yard by the apartment building, you had to be on your back looking straight up for sought after views.

Imagine my delight when I saw the small out of state college I attended was located on a large hilltop overlooking a river.  I felt blessed to see the expansive unblemished view of the sky as well as the indulgence of water near by.  The river would never replace my love for the lake, but it offered so many new delights.

As a child, a young adult, and a mother, I welcomed the moon into aspects of life.  Then as an evolving soul, I was called to dance under spell of the moon and welcome falling stars into my heart.  It is pure heaven to watch the moon gently float across the sky.   The moon shines its light of hope, love, and joy to all earth children. All you need to do is look up!
