MOON; 18/08/2015


Take time to observe the sky. We will be hosting the moon in this cycle.


It was more than a week since I started looking for the signs of the new moon. Yesterday, when I was least expecting it, the shiny spectacle hit my nerves. As thin as it was, the celestial body was doing strong and promising another better cycle. Unlike the previous moon which came with a loss of some of my goodies and the end of my campus program, this has found me freerer and idealistic.

It must have been hidden in the sky for I am not sure whether it was first yesterday or a day before. I understand that there is a crescent stage that is rarely seen. Yesterday, as I take it was the first and I expect to do the same for the following cycle. Keep reading.


Then a thought came about…will people in future be religious as a profession? For instance, we have medics, astronomy, and marsonry among related occupations. Such is the way with my love for literature. The moon, as I may not want to be superstitious sometimes sees me mumble a prayer. Not to gods of course. Or maybe because the mind, heart and me are beings fed differently. Only a few thinkers may be religious…of course not the primitive one we doing now. Professionally religious I mean.
