In Buddhism, the greatest relief or solace that we can obtain is that of touching nirvana, where nonfear has become something that is part of everyday life. We have a great fear inside ourselves. We are afraid of everything—of our death, of being alone, of change—and the practice of mindfulness helps us to touch nonfear. It is only here that you can experience total relief, total happiness. Nirvana is the foundation of our being, just as water is considered to be the essence of all waves. In the beginning we think that we have a beginning and an end, a birth and a death, and we might think that before our birth we were not there and after our death we will not be there, and we get caught up in the concept of being and nonbeing. Together let us look deeply at a wave in the ocean. It lives its life of a wave, but it lives the life of water at the same time. If the wave were able to turn toward itself and touch its substance, which is water, then it would be able to attain nonfear and nirvana. We live with the concepts of birth and death, of being and nonbeing, of unity and plurality; we have not had the occasion to touch the ultimate dimension of our being. This is nirvana, which can be translated as “extinction.” But extinction of what? Of all emotions, including the notions of birth, death, being, and nonbeing. Thich Nhat Hanh

The moon was 97% full when I took this on 12/8/11 from where I live. Using a program called Heavenly Opportunity, I carefully calculated when it would rise and what angle. Then I waited....and waited.....and had to swing the camera to the right when I found I had mis-calculated. (lunar madness)

We're under a stormy sky
Watchin' the clouds roll by
But won't you let me keep you warm
And leave the storm outside?
It's only a stormy sky...
