MOON; 28-08-2015

As seen from Nairobi 2100hrs

The fact that it grows in the sky as it shines below makes it add onto another day's shape. The moon now pretends to be circular- full moon. If you keenly looked at the lower curve it does not fully complement the upper half.

Some things bring you closer to God. Imagine thinking of death in sickness. Bet me I can't give in to death. And that makes God a tyrant incase he is. Looking at the moon I wondered whether I should insult it as a way of implore its help. But the fact that it is a thing makes it innocently illusioned. I'll get well soon. But I know that I am not that strong.

The good thing with today's moon is that I am not lonely and got the camera - Mom Mary told me to visit her place. I am freely enjoying the services of a Wi-Fi supplied house and just thinking will this not even make one a frequent reader and blogger? Isn't this the world we want? I can sense the hot stomach but Ken is here to give me stories of what happened since as the moon shines outside. I wondser if he knows that I am thinking about the moon outside.
