"I myself am the sun and the moon."

I am the sun.
I provide light to other people as best I can while they go about their lives. Even though I burn up as time goes on, people are counting on me to take care of myself. I need to keep myself warm and functioning. Sometimes clouds get in the way of my shine, yet I continue to keep track of time and change. Every morning I rise with new hopes. Every night I set with a new perspective.

I am the moon.
I guide others in their darkness while remaining calm and steadfast, even though the darkness can consume me. Solace from the the exhausting day is enough for the night. Sometimes, I have friends in the stars. More often, I exist without a companion as the whole world sleeps. Yet, this loneliness is bearable. I am simply doing my job, giving everyone a break, and letting us all rest.

I am both the sun and the moon.
This may leave me confused about my role in this world, but it also leaves me reassured that the world is more complex than I give it credit for. We can be more than one thing.

We can be both the sun and the moon.
We can be both warm and cold.
We can be both bright and calm.
We can be both happy and sad.
We can be both.
