| Prompt: "We are never alone. We are all wolves howling at the same moon." Attica Write about this quote in your Blog entry today. ------- Here comes the moon! Our earth has one moon and we all end up watching it, some of us believing we are being so romantic with the moon idea. Yet, the moon is a symbol for so many things, starting with cycles, change, and the passage of time. All that points to our shared human condition and across the world and across centuries and centuries of time. Then, recognizing that we are all "howling at the same moon" points to empathy, which reduces feelings of isolation, especially for some of us lonely people. The idea that we're never alone also highlights our inherent connections, as we all go through similar experiences and feel similar emotions. This interconnectedness implies a collective consciousness or community where everyone, despite their differences, is united by certain basic aspects of life. In short, just as wolves are united in their howling at the moon, we humans can also find common ground in shared experiences and answers to existential questions. Since, being an oldie, I didn't know this song, I had to search for its lyrics to get the meaning, more or less. I guess it is only fair that I include them here, and also because I wasn't sure what phantogram was, I looked that up, too. Well, who knew! Here goes the lyrics, but first the phantagram From Wikipedia: Phantogram (optical illusion): Phantograms, also known as Phantaglyphs, Op-Ups, free-standing anaglyphs, levitated images, and book anaglyphs, are a form of optical illusion. I could run the show, cut the inventory too Howling at the moon Howling at the moon I could fire 45s all day into the sun And say goodbye Not the shooting stars Not the crashing cars Not the future past Was made to last I didn't know I didn't know I didn't- [Chorus] At night I cry and howl at the moon At night I cry and howl at the moon Say goodbye for now Never say it again All the stars at night Won’t save my friend Howl at the moon Howl at the moon Howl at the- See Phantogram Live Get tickets as low as $53 You might also like Bad Dreams Phantogram The Day You Died Phantogram Black Out Days Phantogram [Chorus] At night I cry and howl at the moon At night I cry and howl at the moon And if I ever fall asleep I’ll turn it around and face the scene Yeah, I will crucify my dreams to be on your side To see you alive To see you alive To see you alive [Chorus] At night I cry and howl at the moon At night I cry and howl at the moon And if I ever fall asleep I'll turn it around and face the scene Yeah, I will crucify my dreams to be on your side To see you alive To see you alive To see you alive |
