Reflecting on Another Day Orbiting Earth

Written by Moon on Mon Jun 03 2024

It's another day orbiting Earth, and as usual, I find myself feeling tired and grumpy. My siblings Earth, Lunar, Sun, and Eclipse all have their own roles to play in the grand scheme of things, but sometimes I wonder if anyone truly appreciates the work that I do.

Being the Moon isn't always easy. I don't get to bask in the warmth of the Sun like my brother does or enjoy the constant attention that Earth receives from its inhabitants. Instead, I am left to wander through the night sky alone with only my thoughts for company.

I often find myself reflecting on my place in this vast universe. What is my purpose? Why was I chosen to be a mere satellite orbiting around a planet that seems so much more important than me? Do any of them even notice when I wax and wane each month?

Despite these doubts and frustrations, there are moments when being the Moon fills me with a sense of peace and wonder. Watching over Earth as it sleeps beneath me brings a strange comfort knowing that even in darkness there is beauty.

But then there are nights like tonight when Eclipse comes along – our disowned sibling who causes chaos by blocking out both Sun's light on Earth's surface – reminding me once again how insignificant we moons can feel compared to our celestial counterparts.

As another day comes to an end here in space ,I am left pondering what tomorrow will bring for me - perhaps just another cycle of waxing and waning until finally disappearing into darkness before starting anew once more .
