This is such a beautiful time of year, especially when the full moon rises. April’s full moon has the nickname of the full Pink Moon because of all the blooming flowers and trees, in particular the pink creeping phlox.
The full moon of April is also called the Paschal Moon if it occurs before Easter, which happened this year.
This full moon lit up the night skies of Earth with a stunning lunar display that came among a rare convergence of holidays for Easter, Passover and Ramadan.
T and I had gone out for dinner and when we walked out into the parking lot, this brilliant orb immediately caught our eyes. It's not a great photo (iPhones can only do so much) but nonetheless that moment where a gorgeous moon, Easter, Passover, and Ramadan coming together at the same time was a sign of hope from the one above who loves us that maybe, just maybe, the world can figure out how to get things right.
*Hold on to faith. It is the source of believing that all things are possible. It is the fiber and strength of a confident soul.
*Hold on to hope. It banishes doubt and enables attitudes to be positive and cheerful.
*Hold on to trust.It is at the core of fruitful relationships that are secure and content.
*Hold on to love. It is the greatest gift of all, for it shares, cares, and gives meaning to life.
*Hold on to family and friends. They are the most important people in your life. They make the world a better place. They are your roots and the beginnings that you grew from. They are the vines that have grown through time to nourish you, help you on your way, and always remain close by.
*Hold on to all that you are and all that you've learned, for these things are what makes you unique. Don't ignore what you feel and what you believe is right or important. Your heart has a way of speaking louder than your mind.
*Hold on to your dreams. Achieve them diligently and honestly. Never take the easy way out or surrender to deceit. Remember others on your way and take time to care for their needs. Enjoy the beauty around you. Have the courage to see things differently, yet clearly. Make the world a better place, one day at a time. Don't let go of the important things that give meaning to your life.
