Beautiful and Lonely

"Let the moon teach you the art of being beautiful 

and lonely at the same time."

Anand Thakur

The passage of the moon is solitary and its brilliance ebbs and flows, quite similar to our passage in life. Although traveling alone, the moon is accompanied by the presence of the stars. And is this not like our passage in life ... traveling alone, sometimes brilliant sometimes not, and sporadically accompanied by stars.

When the moon is hidden, it may be challenging to find our way.  But without doubt, we know it is there. When it is shining brightly, we may experience accelerated energy to propel ourselves forward in a determined way. Moving through the darkness, we find ourselves trusting in our uncharted course.

The full moon shines ever so brightly, reminding us of its presence. It is a forever friend, just waiting for us to reach out. It listens without judgment and fosters solitude. Gazing up at the moon, we can experience a true sense of tranquility. The relationship with the  moon is a safe space where both tears and joy can flow.
