When Did We Become Tame?

Walking around dazed, battered and confused, sitting for a moment in time reflecting on the reality that you only live once, what has kept you company from young through to golden years, fascinated, scared and even amazed you?

It must be the moon, I remember vividly lying in bed when the moon moved over with the trees outside wildly waving their arms in the wind, thinking as a child, is there a witch on a broom that could fly up to the window.

Movement and sound made eerie mystical images triggering fear, enough to dive under the sheet and hide.

Where did our imagination go, adventures to unknown destinations, all in the mind of course of sailing the seas or walking on the moon, thinking others may live up there. Always a light side and dark side.

As a teenager all starry eyed, full of adventure, bonding ideas of moon travel never ceased, taking on more elaborate tantalizing detail.

Imagine sitting up there looking back to see our world, yes discussions with thought evoking chemicals experiencing life, elated all experiences were positively enhancing life, compared to some experiencing bummer's.

One constant in life experience was the waxing and waning of the moon overhead, season changes, growing older, growing up children around campfires showing them the stars, explaining the seas on the moon, how the moon effects the tides down here on earth.

Weaving stories of old into fresh young minds as our parents had taught us, how to use the night skies for navigation. Entities of the night sky reveal flickers of hope and direction.

No matter what we think we are primal, use it or lose it, protect yourself and family from harm.

Perhaps one day when I am "space dust" I will get to sit on the edge of the moon smile back and say what a ride this has been.

Crammed with fun, imagination, experience, hardships, testing one to the outer reaches of sanity/insanity, all in all You Only Live Once", keep on dancing in the moonlight, walking in fear of the unknown never got us anywhere!

In bondage, still level 4 with no sign of a cigarettes or beer any time soon (I hope I'm not down under and didn't realize it happened), while draconian rulings hang around, keep dreaming! Act my Age, I don't know how to, I've never been this age before!
