“The sun and moon
shine on all without partiality.”
~ Confucius
I was so grateful today for sunshine after
several gloomy days - and now tonight to enjoy a beautiful full moon. Sunshine is a blessing, and sunrises are
gorgeous. I admit, I get more excited about
the moon and a beautiful moonrise. Maybe
because a full moon comes just once a month (or every Blue Moon, twice like
this month) and we have the hope of sunshine every day. Maybe because the sun is so bright it doesn’t
appear to be special, but the moon seems to light up a dark sky
Confucius reminds us that we are all living under the same sun and the same moon. Through the last several months when we have felt some defeat, the sun has come up, and the moon has been there for us – for all of us. Despite our differences, we all live under the same sun and moon.
The sun and the moon are always there for all of us. They are not always visible, but they are always there. It is up to us to see them – to see the light, to see the hope and to remember that just as the sun and moon are impartial, we can be too.
Go out and check out the beautiful moon, and this weekend enjoy the sunshine. The moon and the sun are there for us to give us hope and for us to remember the light.
Have a great week!
