"One day, I'll hold you like the sun holds the moon"


My favorite song lately is Letters from the Sky by Civil Twilight - my youtube.com search is not working or I would post a link to the song.
In the song, there is a line "One day soon, I‘ll hold you like the sun holds the moon… and we won’t have to be scared..." This got me thinking about the perfection of the Universe and how this is such lovely inspiration for our choice to Love each other.
In this world where we can write our own script, create any relationship we desire and manifest a future of our own design, we write/speak/intend very specific conditions for our perfect partners and associations. Often, the focus is on behavior, interests, attitudes, money, affection, location, physical qualities or status to name a few conditions.
What if, we could trust gravity, electricity, balance and polarity like in the relationship between the sun and the moon? What if, we didn't have a list for comparison, or conditions to be met in order to surrender to a partnership as powerful as this? What if, the only business we had to attend to, whether in partnership with another or not, was to be sure we are where we are supposed to be, when we are supposed to be there, in contribution to the greater good?
I'd bet that neither the sun nor the moon had/has criteria for entering into the dance they do each day to create this beautiful world in which we live. I'd also suggest that the sun doesn't wait to see what the moon is going to do before setting course on his purpose, and that the moon doesn't divert her path on a day when the sun's shine is not visible on her face. There exists a tremendous amount of trust, balance, intention and vision in this genius of nature. The collective focus is always forward, with singular attention to knowing self, ones abilities and living in that truth. Human life thrives in the gravitational balance of these entities. Perhaps we could take a hint and charge up our emotional connections through their example as well.

May we be blessed with the capacity to hold our beloved like the sun holds the moon.
