This is the section of Strive4Impact.com, where you can read, every day, something I wrote since I was 13 years old (1993).  Some of it's adolescent angst, but some of it is quite good, and I hope you'll agree.  What are we up to now? Currently, my wife and I are traveling the world and blogging our experience.  We may have been somewhere you would like to go, or maybe we could come to meet you?  Either way, you may find our reviews and advice helpful.  Check it out at http://www.CarrieAndJonathan.com

The Man in the Moon

February 1995
Jonathan is 15

The Man in the Moon
a figment of the mind
looks down on us
and sees us in our lives

He sees the way we fear,
He sees the way we harm,
He sees the way we hate

He sees the way we take pride
He sees the way we care

He sees the way we love
and when he sees us loving he
looks at us knowing that it's all so simple

-But he cannot tell us
because all he is is-

A figment of the mind
The man in the moon
