Heart Moon Light

More From Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

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
Greek architecture taught me that the column is where the light is not, and the space between is where the light is. it is a matter of no-light, light, no-light, light. a column and a column brings light between them. to make a column which grows out of the wall and which makes its own rhythm of no-light, light, no-light, light: that is the marvel of the artist.
Wall Artist Light
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.
Believe Dark Moon
The moon looks wonderful in this warm evening light, just as a candle flame looks beautiful in the light of morning. light within light...it seems to me to be a metaphor for the human soul, the singular light within that great general light of existence.
Beautiful Morning Moon
Seeing the moon, he becomes the moon, the moon seen by him becomes him. he sinks into nature, becomes one with nature. the light of the "clear heart" of the priest, seated in the meditation hall in the darkness before the dawn, becomes for the dawn moon its own light.
Heart Moon Light
And i saw darkness for weeks. it never dawned on me that i could come out of it, but you heal. nature heals you, and you do come out of it. all of a sudden i saw a crack of light ... then all of a sudden i saw another crack of light. then i saw forms in the light. and i recognized that there was no darkness, that in darkness there'll always be light.

Healing from our past is an essential aspect of expanding our sense of self and awakening our capacity to love. this shift often manifests as a change in the questions we've been asking ourselves. instead of what do i need? we ask, how can i serve? instead of what am i getting out of this? we start to ask, what can i bring to this situation to promote the highest possible outcome for everyone involved?

Do not cringe and make yourself small if you are called the black sheep, the maverick, the lone wolf. those with slow seeing say that a noncomformist is a blight on society. but it has been proven over the centuries, that being different means standing at the edge, that one is practically guaranteed to make an original contribution, a useful and stunning contribution to her culture.
