"If you want the moon, do not hide from the night.
If you want a rose, do not run from the thorns.
If you want love, do not hide from yourself."
- Rumi

Last night I stepped outside for a sip of moonlight and to take a quick photo of the moon. To put things into perspective I set my sights upon Tycho crater which is estimated to be 108 million years old, then I looked for Mare Serenitatis (Sea of Serenity) and there with gaze fixed on serenity, I spoke the Metta.

May you be peaceful
May you be happy
May you be well
May you be safe
May you be free from suffering
