Bright Light of Life

Claire wonders how far the moon is, so she asked her grandmother and father.

It is very far, my little pumpkin.

But how can the Mr. Moon reach me if he is too far? I think Mr. Moon is not that far!

You know what pumpkin? There are things that seem to be near, yet so unreachable, just

like Mr. Moon.

Daddy, is Mr. Moon unreachable?

The father seemed confused by the question.

The moon? Of course it is, which makes it unreachable.

But how can Mr. Moon reach my room? Just like last night, he came and wave at me.
