More From Kathryn Lasky

There was just one moon. that familiar, yellow, solitary moon. the same moon that silently floated over fields of pampas grass, the moon that rose--a gleaming, round saucer--over the calm surface of lakes, that tranquilly beamed down on the rooftops of fast-asleep houses. the same moon that brought the high tide to shore, that softly shone on the fur of animals and enveloped and protected travelers at night. the moon that, as a crescent, shaved slivers from the soul--or, as a new moon, silently bathed the earth in its own loneliness. that moon.
Loneliness Animal Moon
The sweetness of dogs (fifteen) what do you say, percy? i am thinking of sitting out on the sand to watch the moon rise. full tonight. so we go and the moon rises, so beautiful it makes me shudder, makes me think about time and space, makes me take measure of myself: one iota pondering heaven. thus we sit, i thinking how grateful i am for the moon’s perfect beauty and also, oh! how rich it is to love the world. percy, meanwhile, leans against me and gazes up into my face. as though i were his perfect moon.
Beautiful Dog Grateful
The moon is a white strange world, great, white, soft-seeming globe in the night sky, and what she actually communicates to me across space i shall never fully know. but the moon that pulls the tides, and the moon that controls the menstrual periods of women, and the moon that touches the lunatics, she is not the mere dead lump of the astronomist. . . . when we describe the moon as dead, we are describing the deadness in ourselves. when we find space so hideously void, we are describing our own unbearable emptiness.
Moon Night Sky
Faced with today's problems and disappointments , many people will try to escape from their responsibility. escape in selfishness, escape in sexual pleasure, escape in drugs, escape in violence, escape in indifference and cynical attitudes. i propose to you the option of love, which is the opposite of escape.
Disappointment Attitude Responsibility
The moon is whole all the time, but we can’t always see it. what we see is an almost moon or not-quite moon. the rest is hiding just out of view, but there’s only one moon, so we follow it in the sky. we plan our lives based on its rhythms and tides.
Moon Views Sky
What was supposed to be so special about a full moon? it was only a big circle of light. and the dark of the moon was only darkness. but halfway between the two, when the moon was between the worlds of light and dark, when even the moon lived on the edge...maybe then a witch could believe in the moon.

When we first got married, we made a pact. it was this: in our life together, it was decided i would make all of the big decisions and my wife would make all of the little decisions. for fifty years, we have held true to that agreement. i believe that is the reason for the success in our marriage. however, the strange thing is that in fifty years, there hasn’t been one big decision.
Believe Agreement Years
So a holocaust-denying, virulently anti-semitic, aspiring genocidist, on the verge of acquiring weapons of the apocalypse, believes that the end is not only near but nearer than the next american presidential election. (pity the democrats. they cannot catch a break.) this kind of man would have, to put it gently, less inhibition about starting armageddon than a normal person.
