Exsertus exchange

Did you see the new moon. I gasped when I caught sight of it just underneath a bank of cloud. It made my heart leap out at its beauty. The globe was dark mottle and the sliver of new was shiny steel. Today's weather was unpredictable and exciting. I lived in the Virgin Islands in the Caribbean in the 1960s. I remember the climate being hot, always hot. The only excitement came with the hurricanes. We had to batten down the hatches and keep the generator going to produce the electricity. Now I'm in a space which doesnt in any way remind me of that place but seeing the moon is remarkable. I remember seeing it in the Caribbean. It was the same moon.
My son Ben's first word 32 years ago was 'Mooooon'.
Im tired, I miss you, I will miss you again.

Walking in the countriside on a nice day like today, Tuesday morning makes you feel happy but you may trip. You trip when you walk as your eyes are glued to the air as there is a cloud travelling through the sky and the eye follows the cloud as it is travelling fast so fast because I turn round and round in a circle and forgot to tie my shoelaces and so I tripped over the lace and fell down to the ground lying on the field flat as a flunder and suddenly I see the cloud is not moving fast . I send a short message to you in my mind without using a mobile or a computer , -
kind regards, K.

How do you feel about experienceing the carribean moon in a temperate climate 30 years on?

what effect is the moon having on you? is it soothing your pains is it healing your anguish? is it getting rid of all those demons ? or is it just freaking you out?

Whatever you are feeling. Embrace the moon .Make it your friend.
Let the mother silver energy re connect you to the skies. Deam sweet dreams !!!!!!
