Almost full moon

I feel so blissful. I was gazing at the moon for hours together. Why not a quick blog update i thought and rushed down from my terrace to tell you how wonderful I'm feeling right now. Full moon's a day away and the moon looks absolutely divine. It is that night when the moon isn't quite a perfect circle; when it's not unblemished white; when it's not trying to win hearts; when it's in complete harmony with everything around; when it's not flawless and yet content with what it is. It's one such night when I can actually connect to nature. The orange-ish clouds were moving with such grace...how do I explain. For the first time, I was looking at the moon with a sense of tranquility and little excitement. I used to usually get bewildered by the full moon on a starry night. But now, I feel calm and blessed to be able to admire such beauty. It's just the way it ought to be. I shall head back to the terrace. It's almost full moon, do catch a glimpse.
When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in worship of the creator.
