The moon is a loyal companion. It never leaves. It's always there, watching, steadfast, knowing us in our light and dark moments, changing forever just as we do. Every day it's a different version of itself. Sometimes weak and wan, sometimes strong and full of light. The moon understands what it means to be human. —Tahereh Mafi in Shatter Me More about this quote Tags: strength knowledge self moon steadfast Permalink for this quote facebook twitter tumblr email
