The Enigmatic Moon

Its  the time when the moon reflects the light of the sun-NIGHT. Little did we know as children that the moon doesn't have any light of its own. It reflects the light of the sun that fells upon it.We wondered that Sun is yellow and the moon is white. These colors were an important attribute while painting landscapes that we loved to do in our art classes. But when our Science teacher taught us in our primary classes about this true and astonishing fact, our minds were awestruck at this scientific wonder.

The moon is a perfect example of a shrouded personality shining with the help of someone else's efforts. But what is the bigger reality is  that this is a 'law of nature'. When I stare at the moon, I wonder about the puzzling mysteries of Life. The moon is one of them, yet it gives me great pleasure to imagine the magic cloak that shines and daily comes out in the darkness.

Often we see people not acknowledging the efforts put in by others and trying to sail under false colors. Children abandon their parents when they turn old and become a burden on them. They forget that they burned brightly during the day so that you can enjoy the pleasure of night like the moon. We fail to acknowledge their endeavors that they did their entire life to see us achieving success.
Similar is the case with most people. They appear to  be somebody else and turn out to be exactly the different. While the sun scorches us with the heat, the moon is the soothing reminder of the calmness and cool. But still the moon shines only because of the sun, while the sun burns  bright the moon glimmers with its mystic yet fake light reflecting on the earth.
