adapting moths

ADAPTABLE

it's clear.
the unclear.
the new.
the world.
ever-uncertain and yet we must live it ever day.
day by day and note by note.
no clarity. no certainty.
just change.
the change.
accept the change.
accept the consequences.
accept the reality.
it is clear that nothing is clear.
nothing is certain.
nothing stays.

change.
we change.
we blend.
we learn.
we move.
we move on.
we grow.

THAT is clear.

that we must.
all of it.
change. blend. learn. move. grow.
fight.
fight the change.
only fight it with logic and heart.
think and consider.
use the change to your advantage.
make it yours.
accept it and approach it strong.
hard and fast.
tough and delicate.
kind and smart.
approach it.
accept it.
and adapt.

make life right.
use what's there.
embrace the change and grow.
grow with it til the days are done.
til there is silence.

so i keep looking into moths. not sure why. i feel a weird connection, but nothing easily explained. i used to hate moths. i found them creepy and little nerve-racking to find flitting around in my home. i think that changed when i was walking with a friend one night. i don't even remember what friend but i know it was a male and it was by rallys. doesn't matter. anyway, there was a moth. a HUGE light yellowing moth. it was following me. no joke. it'd flutter its almost too heavy to lift wings a bit, plop down right behind me or next to me and then if i moved forward it continued on the same path. this happened for only a bit as it liked being close to the street lights instead of my dark alley towards home. but it was weird. something in me changed that night. i felt at ease. at peace and lacking fear. i didn't just feel less fearful of moths. i just felt less fearful in general. it felt beautiful and i still don't why that even matters.
no, all my fears didn't just magically go a away forever, but for that moment, it felt like that. peace. perfection.
because i was reminded of that not too long ago, i looked up the symbolic meanings for moths. although, like any symbol, it didn't fit me to a T, but it sure as hell became something i felt even more connected to. it felt right.

random silly precious things about moths:
-a symbol for vulnerability, determination, concealment, attraction, subtlety, intuition and faith.
-navigates towards light because of the idea of the moon(relates to night owl people, like me)
-"Even at the risk of loosing its life, the moth is ever-vigilant in following its path of light. This may also serve as a moral to us to keep our own vigilance, but not fall victim of blind faith."
-addresses the idea of adjusting one's course as necessary to get to an end result.
-addresses the idea of wanting to pull someone out of the darkness(possibly fixer)
-A master of disguise, the moth can blend in to the point of invisibility. This is a metaphor for us to use our environment to our advantage, blend in when necessary, adjust and adapt when the situation requires it."
