the moon and i

As I water our orchids tonight, I saw the moon. I felt a smile in my lips. It was like a sign of a brighter tomorrow. I don't want to be melodramatic but it's true that there are a lot of things around us that can easily take away our joy and happiness. It takes a lot of strength to stay positive in the midst of all the negativities. Every day, I have to remind myself to take things one step at a time. In life, nothing is certain. What's certain is that we're given enough time. How we spend it depends entirely on us. Right now, there are a few things that seem to dampen my spirits. Thanks to the stars tonight and the moon, they provide comfort and solace that I alone can't give myself.
