When i was little I truly believed that all things were alive.. the sun would go to bed in the evening and be tucked in by a big warm Sun mother. I then imagined the moon waking up, brushing its teeth and having breakfast before beginning the night. I was sure the moon was a nocturnal creature and was shocked when I first saw it in the daylight. From time to time I still look up and laugh out loud to myself.
