Description

Early one morning in June of 2021, my daughter woke up and came in to tell me that she had just had a dream. "The moon was singing a lullaby to the stars!" I was astounded. What a dream! I asked her if she could draw a picture of what she saw. The "main character" in this book is the image she drew that morning. It is a perfect poetic image. I let my meditations over the next couple months create in me a tribute to my daughter and her dream and this book is what emerged. It is a lullaby - a poetic story - that tells the story of the moon's longing to "be a star." Though she was singing a comfort to the stars, she was also singing with longing because she didn't feel quite "bright enough." This is an especially important point to make with children: they are enough. Their light. Their love. Their hope. THEY: are enough. How many of us still live with the confusion and longing to "be something" or to be "someone" which we are not? Where did these messages come from and what can we do to make sure that they don't consume the minds and hearts of another generation. In this story the moon longs to be "a star." The consolation of the stars comes back to her in this story and she finds comfort in the message from them. She realizes that she is - with her star "not so far" - quite bright enough. Her light is just right as she and the sun team up to do what only they can do: "make a night light." So many of our young people seek "followers" and "subscribers" in a digitally intoxicated world - seeking to have their light reflected in the strange new world that comes to them from the internet. They seek their reflections in likes and followers. They need to be affirmed that their "light" is enough and that there really is no need to "be a star." You are enough is the message that they need. It is the message which this book offers all who read it. My daughter was paying attention to her dream. I hope you feel inspired also!
