Monday night I went out with my camera to capture the Moon in all of its glory, but returned home without the shot I was hoping for.
   I have been disappointed before.
   Sometimes it’s the clouds, location, forgetfulness, obligations elsewhere, or even man-made obstructions, but the other night I was left with the feeling I had been denied what should come naturally.
   We can’t always appreciate a night under a Full Moon, but when you know it is there you should still permit yourself time for reflection (if not meditation).
   Our awareness shifts when we are allowed some clarity. Emotionally, the intensity of everything becomes abundantly clear and we persist in seeking the stability we desire.
   The answers are not always there when the inspiration is obscured.
   Even so, evermore, we continue to consider the totality of its affect as we keep looking up.
