Isnt the moon fascinating. Look at it right now, I can see it too, but still I'm probably thousands of miles far away from you. It shines for everyone everywhere and it have done for generations. Can't we find some kind of solidarity by it ? When I miss someone I can look at it and think " yes he/she sees the same". It's like an unforgettable sign or something. Still it just sits there and shines alone, not thinking, not worry. I think we should be more like it, peaceful, timeless. I know this was a weird question, but still there is a need of them to. What do you think about when you look at the moon ? Maybe you think like "nothing" , but hey thats still a thought :)

Much as I love the shining lady in all her phases, she is a dead world, with no light of her own--reflecting sunlight, starlight and earthlight. Close up she is old, tired and pock-marked.
I love my mother the earth. She bears me up, though I walk on her daily. She is beautiful, though my people maim and scar her through ill-usage. She renews herself, and gives life in abundance, though we rarely acknowledge her.
I love the moonlight, but I love the earth that I can stand and watch that light from even more.

How its always changing yet always the same. How it makes me feel; a little edgy, a little silly and a lot clearer. How it looks when it touches the ocean, when it shines on snow, when it rises and seems to well...how magnificent a light in the night it is. I think about the distant past when people worshiped it, even though it is less than the sun. I think about how poets write about it...I walk in the moonlight and feel as though its light pierces the core of who I am and lays bare all the illusions I build around myself.

I feel that way sometimes, but people are amazed by whatever phenomenon in nature they see.

People apply their own meaning into many things: the sea, the sun, the sky, a mountain, anything. That's why it was so easy for people to worship things in nature — until Jesus stepped in.

I like to think of it as the compressed remnants of a planet-sized asteroid that struck the earth millions of years ago that we can only see when the sun is reflecting off it... but it is pretty.

I think of my past, present, and future with my loved ones. And sometimes nothing at all, it is so wild to thing that our four fathers seen the same moon and stars that we see every night. Also, with a little hope maybe our children and their children can see the same moon that we do every night.

Cute question. I think the moon is God looking right back at us, reminding us that he is there and he is bigger than all of this.
