Tides

The moon may move our hearts today, but her first love was the ocean, stirred billions of years ago. The attraction may have grown stronger or weaker through time, but the affair has never ended.

Like any relationship, it has complexities and baggage.

The moon calls out to the earth’s oceans in the form of gravity, and the oceans call back, their pulsing energy holding the moon close while also pushing it away.

It’s a dance performed celestially, with partners on a floor hundred of thousands miles across.

It brings new meaning to the concept of a long-distance relationship.

And, from the perspective of a human life, the dance never had a beginning or and end.
