The Moon
The moon is full once in awhile.  It has that ability.
And it can be many other sizes, depending on where it rest in relation to the earth and the sun.
Romantic humans tend to enjoy the moon regardless of its size or shape.  We have unconditional acceptance for the moon.  We don't even criticize  the moon when it doesn't show up at all on a cloudy night.
The moon is constantly changing from our perspective ~ moving through natural cycles.
That is, it is constantly changing in relation to the earth and the sun.
The moon is actually always full.  The moon is never really silver.  And half moons and crescents moons are illusions for us to enjoy.
The moon has the ability to show its fullness to us, and yet we don't expect it always.
Sometimes I wonder why we don't treat ourselves with the same love and acceptance that we have for the moon.
