Moon in the Mountains

The night before last as I walked toward the dining hall with a friend, we marveled at the brightness of the village at a time when it should be covered in the darkness of the night. The full moon shined down on the mountains, and without the light pollution we're used to in the cities, its blue light uplifted the people and illuminated the buildings and pathways of the village. Truly we are in a place set apart for seeing life differently, as though seeing somehow with the eyes of our hearts.
