Moon

Close the language-door,
and open the love-window
The moon won’t use the door,
only the window.
Rumi

We are living in a time when we all need to come together 

and help one another. 

The spirits say we need to learn to get along.

From the Stars

 

Its breathtaking to consider:

You have two eyes, 

each composed of 130 million photoreceptor cells.

In each one of those cells, 

there are 100,000,000,000,000 (100 trillion atoms), 

that's more than all the stars in the Milky Way galaxy.

However, each atom in each cell in each eye 

formed in the core of a star,

billions of years ago, and yet, here they are today, 

being utilized 

to capture the energy released from the same process.

All to expand the consciousness that is YOU.

The universe has an interesting sense of irony, in that, 

you are the universe experiencing itself.

All you are is a thought.

Compass

A compass for navigation, like any good inventor knows, is made with a piece of magnetized and a simple metal pin, but the makings of a moral compass are not as clear. Some believe that all are born with a moral compass, like an appendix or the fear of worms. According to others, the moral compass develops over time, as you discover the decisions of others, observing the world and reading books. In any case, a moral compass seems to be a delicate thing, and as people grow and venture into the world, often it becomes increasingly difficult to understand in which direction lies the needle tip, and increasingly difficult to decide which is the best thing to do.
