21st of March----the night everyone has been waiting for. This is the night where she would reign over again, the night where she would be at her strongest. Every one of us can look up and see her magnificent beauty, towering over us with that illuminating light. But it’s not just her beauty that anticipates us. Yes, she is extra lovely tonight; but what excites us the most is the fact that she would be up there, illuminating the dark night full of dark pain. Her light tonight would bring comfort to everyone who is in pain. She is extra beautiful and extra luminous tonight because she knows that is what we've been needing. We have always been needing her. We have always been needing her light for us to pass through the nights----the nights that are filled with seamlessly endless pain that we’ve been feeling without anybody knowing. We have always been needing her beauty to give us hope that after all, there is still beauty surrounding us amidst everything that tries to hurt us. She is always that beauty that we hold on to----and she knows it.
She knows that a lot of us are deeply wounded. Yes, she knows that. She knows that more than anyone else. She knows that because she is always the one we run towards to when we feel very much suffocated with everything. She knows our darkest secrets, loudest cries, deepest pains, and hardest agonies. She knows it all because she can see and she can hear how hurt we are----how deep the stab wounds in our hearts are. She knows it the most. Amidst all the beauty she emits, she can still witness a lot of beautiful human beings who cry the night away. And even though, yes, there are still people who seem to have fun and dance the night away, those people who already found assurance, comfort, and home in their loved ones, those people whose hearts are nicely at rest, those people who watch her with light and happy hearts----she can still see that there are those tired, helpless, and agonizing human beings that find shelter in her. She does not complain, yes; but she is curious. Why do most of these people are also the same people who laugh the most, smile the most, and shine the most during the day? Why are these the same people who enjoy the sunshine and are the sunshine themselves? That was when she realized----nights are really the time when most people would feel at ease to take off their masks.
Tonight is the night that everyone has been waiting for. Tonight is when she would reign over again and this time, she would take all our worries away. She would take out the miseries in our hearts and replace them with awe for her beauty. She would use her own beauty, her own self, just for us to forget momentarily the pain that the night causes us. And because of this, tonight, she really is a Super Luna.
