I love the moon.

Everyday I look up to the sky

and catch that white face and

walk towards the MRT station.

It's amazing how much the moon

can reflect human nature.

First of all,

the moon, no matter how much

it shines and captures the

essence of night with its glow,

depends on the Sun for its life and light.

Just goes to show, that no matter

how much you bask in your glory

there will be at least one person who was

quintessential for your victory.

Next, the moon is never stagnant.

It goes through a cycle.

I liken this to humans because

sinners can change and angels

can sin.

Change is inevitable.

Tauruseans, i.e. ME, are hostile

to change but everyone has to

go through it.

Why, do you think the Singapore

Flag has a cresent and not a sun?

It signifies change and development,

a young nation on the rise.

Lastly, the moon signifies feminity.

Even Greek Methology names Diana

as the Moon.

Females, are generally,

physically and artistically

more beautiful than males (I disagree btw)

which leads to them being likened

with the beauty of the moon.

Just take a look at the scores of

poets that refer to the moon as their

female lovers and so on.

Even the song Vennilave Vennilave,

"நாம் இரவின் மடியில் பிள்ளைகள்

ஆவோம்.

பாலூட்ட நிலவுண்டு." ;

refering to the moon as a female.

This also shows the general

social stigma of the female

dependance (the moon) on

the opposite gender known as the

male (the sun).

Sigh......

Anyway, these are just a few

on-the-surface reasons

why I adore the moon.

There is still alot to be analyzed.

I just realized how literature based this is.

So all those who are not blessed

with the lit mind like my triple science

friends, be content with what I wrote.

Lol.
