Oh, I really like this! I love the vivid descriptions of your day–and I could feel the weight of it, the rejections, the thankless work, even as the moon transformed, and you with it. Nature can definitely be “medicine for the soul.”
I enjoyed the transformative place that the moon represents – at once a simple thing, a reminder of our own flat character, paper-thin and stained, but also beautiful, a wholesome half of the gentle equilibrium of the day. All in all, this was a refreshing experience – I relished it, found it delightful, and I look forward to more.

Christine, this spoke to me, especially the part about your efforts going unnoticed, as is so much of our daily lives. I enjoyed the role the moon played in your self-reflection and the metaphor of the crumbling cracker.

Yes, reading through some of this, I have a lot of it saved in my inbox 😊
The pale moon against a daylight sky is special… so often we fail to notice it, just like we fail to see the details of ourselved.
Yes it is almost insignificant at that time but still beautiful and looking quite delicate ☺️
A beautiful descriptive write!
Thank you dear Bev ☺️😍❤️
This is amazing … I love how it comes full circle. And the vividness of this description / cracker and cold butter.
That’s so nice of you Helen. Thank you so much 😊💕🌺
I can really feel the pain, but more hopefully, I’m also relieved the moon was able to provide some healing!
Thanks Phillip. We all have bad days, right? ☺️
