The sun and the moon, a sad love story (my version)

in #story7 years ago (edited)

When the sun and the moon they saw each other for the first time, they were beginning to live a great love ...

We do go back to the time when the world did not exist yet and God decided to create it.

God wanted to give a shine to the world as a final touch, that's why he gave him the homework to the sun to illuminate the days and the moon of illuminate the nights, they were forced to be separated forever. Because of this the sun and the moon were filled with great sadness, because they knew that they would never meet.
The moon despite the brightness granted by God was becoming more and more distressed and sad, and thus became more lonely.

The sun in turn was the winner of a title of nobility "Astro Rey", but this also failed to make him happy.

God, seeing this, called them and explained: They should not grieve, now both have their own shine. You, moon, illuminate the cold as well as the hot ones, you will leave enchanted lovers and you will be the frequent protagonist of the most beautiful poems. As for you, sun, you will hold up that title since you are the most important of the stars, you will illuminate with your great brightness during the day, you will provide warmth to living beings and your simple presence will bring happiness to people.

The moon saddened by its horrible fate wept bitterly... The sun to see her suffer in that way, decided that he could not collapse any more, since it should give him strength to help him accept the decision that God had made.
Even so her concern was so great, she made a special request to Him: - Lord, please help the moon, she is more fragile and weaker than me, she will not bear loneliness...

God ... in his immense kindness, created the stars to accompany her. Since then, every time the moon becomes sad it resorts to the stars, who do everything to comfort her but almost never achieve it. Both, although they were not happy, began to live the way God had decided, the sun pretended to be happy while the moon could not hide its sadness.

The sun burns passionately for the moon and she lives in the darkness of her longing. They say that God's order was for the moon to always be full and luminous, but it did not succeed because the moon is a woman, and a woman always has her phases. Therefore, when it is happy it gets full, but when it is unhappy it is waning, therefore it is impossible to appreciate its brightness.
The moon and the sun followed their destiny. He solitary but strong; She, accompanied by the stars, but fragile.
The men try with constancy to conquer it, as if that were possible. Some have even gone to her, but they always come back alone. No one has ever managed to bring it to earth, nobody really managed to conquer it, no matter how hard they tried.
God seeing all this decided that no love in this world was completely impossible, not even the sun and the moon, was when he created the eclipse by conceding to join from time to time.
Today the sun and moon live waiting for those strange moments that were granted to meet and how much they cost to happen. When you look to the sky, from now on, when you know there will be an eclipse, it is because the sun and the moon are together, happy, enjoying that moment and loving each other. That act of love is the eclipse. It is important to remember that the brightness of your ecstasy is so great that it is advised, at that moment, not to see heaven because it can blind you to seeing true love.

This is the true story of true love that hides behind the eclipse, the sun and the moon.
