Moonlight and the Magic of the Unnecessary Every night, for every human being that ever was and ever will be, the Moon rises to remind us how improbably lucky we are, each of its craters a monument of the odds we prevailed against to exist,…

"There is a soft moonlight that gives us peace, and one that inspires a kind of awe. There is a cold, austere moonlight that tells the soul of its loneliness and isolation, and one prompting love, not only for an individual, but a whole universe."

I feel it glinting through the leaves, erratic
like someone hitting the side of a glass with a metal spoon.

It's always the vulnerable caught in the middle that are used to justify endless wars and chaos.

- learn what can be learned, in silence, from the eyes of animals, the flight of birds, the great slow gestures of trees.
