Wu My Moon

Miami Dade County 11/25/2015

At some point the moon had to make it’s way into this blog, right? Winter 2015, I mended my relationship with this beautiful blessing in the sky. Because the moon, the stars and everything in between are the things I love most about life. It was fitting that after falling in love with my life again, I would go back to one of the things I enjoyed the most at night. I spent a year taking pictures of the moon, and created a series which you can follow on IG: @WuMyMoon,. I also took pictures of la luna on my travels, so I hope you enjoy them all. Let me know which one is your favorite. Mine is the full moon over Pont Alexander III in Paris.

I’m a student of just one master,
I’m only afraid of one monster,
I stand — illuminated…

Warm Winds.

Let there be light, and there was light, and the light was good, so much so; that I stopped romantazing the sun.

I survived my first summer after the storm. The possibilities of it arriving one day, and that I would love it was like a figment of someone else’s imagination. Then summer came, and it felt like an old friend, whom I had not seen in so long, and I remembered the line from a song by one of my favorite artist “Give your heart and change your mind, you’re allowed to do it, cause God knows it’s been done to you and somehow you got through it” and just like that forgiveness came in, and I knew that I was going to be OK after all.

I Love New York.

New York, June 6, 2014

When your own city feels too small, I suggest going to the Big Apple. Nothing makes for great distraction like walking the streets of New York City. I live in a place where people are spiteful, deliberately dismissive, rude and history is something you read in textbooks and for the hopeless romantics. I love everything about New York. The seasons, the food, the history, that fact that in a place with 8.5 million people its nice to know that you are far from crossing paths with the person who ghost hunts your steps back home.

Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate. Without them, what would shape our lives? Perhaps if we never veered off course we wouldn’t fall in love, or have babies, or be who we are. After all, seasons change. So do cites. People come into your life and people go. But it’s comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart. And if you’re very lucky, a plane ride away.

Key West, April 28, 2014

I took to the great outdoors like a Howard Deutch movie. As if I had been out in the wild all my life, and I knew exactly how to survive in it. I was a natural at kayaking, snorkeling and paddle boarding, forgetting that it was my first time. I made sure to ignore the phone all day until this beauty showed on my way home. Space is beautiful, time is a blessing and sunsets are what dreams are made of.

It’s a pretty day let’s go outside and enjoy it
If you got something else in mind then I’m all for it..

I didn’t realize how much I took the sun for granted. I put away the curtains in my room to make sure I didn’t forget to appreciate the morning sun. I also put away the alarm clock once I realized. I had been waking up before the sun made its way through the morning clouds.. Many times I found myself admiring it from my bed during lazy Sunday afternoons. Who needs romance when you have the sun?

Never seen a sun shine like this …

I Waited ’til I Saw the Sun

Hammocks, FL ., February 23, 2014

When was the last time you saw the sunrise or the sunset? I encourage you to go at once. Get up tomorrow and catch the sunrise, and before you go home catch it setting. It revives you like nothing else especially after your heart’s been broken, which you forget about once you take a good picture.

Sunrise, sunrise
Looks like mornin’ in your eyes
But the clocks held 9:15 for hours
Sunrise, sunrise
Couldn’t tempt us if it tried
‘Cause the afternoon’s already come and gone…

Like Hope, There Comes the Sun

They say protect yourself from the sun because it causes cancer. There were times where I preferred a sun burn over cupids horrible aim. Interesting how during the most numbing moments of my life, I managed to still capture some of its greatest gifts. I believe this is what HOPE looks like.

Just like a star across my sky,
Just like an angel off the page,
You have appeared to my life,
Feel like I’ll never be the same,
Just like a song in my heart,
Just like oil on my hands.

Party of Five.

Coral Gables, September 27, 2013

The best parts of life are the ones we never dreamt of, you know those moments we never thought would happen in a million years, and then you’re back to being strangers.

The instant when someone throws in the towel on all your dreams –because they only mattered to you, no one else, and you sigh, not because holding it in would destroy you, but because you have accepted deep down that it was truly the best thing anyone holding you back could’ve done.

Sometimes it’s easy to throw on some sweats and fade, and then there are moments like this sunset where you take a deep breath, and know it was truly a blessing to be left behind.

Why dontchu tell me why you fear,
getting closer to me, tell me ’cause I’d like to know…If I make you feel vulnerable?
