Your light in the sky surprised me tonight. I have been so focused on what was just in front of me, so focused on what greedily grabs my attention, that I forgot to look up and out. Yet, even in my self-absorption, you show me how to glow in the darkness of night.
Sometimes when I gaze into your face against the velvet cloth of night, I can feel you like the shining light of a thousand loves beckoning me to remember who I am.
I recall a night so many years ago when I leaned back, cradled by the Earth, and traced you with my finger tips. You were so far away but felt as close as a dear friend.
I know that tomorrow your light will wane. As you shrink in size, help me not forget that the process of your coming back is a mirror to all the waxing and waning of my own bright self.
I am Illuminated.
