Moon Setting in Death Valley




Are we on the earth looking at the moon?
Or,
are we on the moon looking back at the earth?
In either way,
we can envision our place in the universe.
We are as insignificant as the grain of sand,
and yet,
as a person,
a human being,
we are very significant,
each and everyone of us.

In the overall,
we are small,
but in the individual,
we are so much more.

The life we have to give,
the love we have to give and share,
the compassion and understanding that we must give
and
must share with others
are so important
and
only achieve
in the giving and sharing.

While we may appear isolated,
we are not.
We can no more isolate ourselves from society,
from others,
than can the grains of sand in the desert.


Who and what we are is meant to be shared.
Love can and must be shared,
else it is not love in the true sense.
