And the moon said

The moon whispers a timeless truth: “My darling, you do not have to be whole in order to shine.” Even when covered in shadow, even when only a crescent remains, the moon still lights the night. It does not wait for fullness to radiate. It shines in pieces, in phases, in fragments, and still, it is beautiful, still it is enough.

We are no different. Science tells us that the human mind holds a negativity bias, wired to notice what is missing, broken, or incomplete more than what is present. Society amplifies this, teaching us to measure ourselves against ideals of perfection. Yet the spiritual heart reminds us: you were born a being of light. Your radiance does not depend on being flawless, finished, or whole. Even in your fractured moments, you can shine.

Your light is not something you must earn. It is already within you, waiting, constant, indestructible. But the noise of the world buries it: the endless busyness, the demands to perform, the distractions designed to dull your awareness. Like clouds hiding the moon, they conceal your brilliance without ever diminishing it. The light is still there. You only need to remember.

And to shine does not always require grand gestures. If you have wealth, let it extend to someone in need. If you have food, share it with the hungry. If you have health, inspire those who are struggling to heal. And if you feel you have nothing at all, shine with what is hardest to counterfeit, your presence, your kindness, your authenticity, your love. This light is often the most powerful of all.

So why do so many remain in the shadows? Because we forget who we are. Because the world convinces us to trade wonder for worry, truth for entertainment, presence for distraction. Because we are not taught that even the smallest spark can push back the darkest night.

This is your call to remember. You do not need to be perfect to shine. You only need to allow your light to emerge. Open your heart. Let it radiate. Even the faintest glow can brighten the path for someone else. Even the smallest flame can spark hope in another soul. In a world of darkness, you can be a twinkling star. And to someone, you can be the moon, or even the sun. That is how powerful you truly are.

You are light. Find it. Embody it. Share it. Shine bravely, imperfectly, unapologetically. For the world does not need your perfection. It needs your light.

WHAT I CAN AND CANNOT DO

During this period of the COVID-19 like in any other period of our lives, one of the greatest sources of our suffering is our need to “control” everything. We do not “accept” things as they are but want them to be as we want. Consciously, but most of the time unconsciously, we do not accept what is happening around us and want it to be the way we want. For instance, when we say or think: “it is raining again” or “it’s too hot”, we are not accepting unconsciously what it is but want the day to be a nice day, whatever a nice day means for you. We do the same with people, things, locations, etc.; and we do it all the time, for everything, and do not even realize we are doing it. This is why life is so hard.  Just for the simple fact that we are trying to control everything and we do not even know that we are doing it. What most of us do not realize is that everything we are experiencing is happening inside of us, and not outside. All the stimulus from our sensorial organs and ev...
