Between Sun and Moon - Neils Peart
There is a fine line between love and illusion
A fine place to penetrate
The gap between actor and act
The lens between wishes and fact
Some need to pray to the sun at high noon
Need to howl at the midwinter moon
Reborn and baptized in a moment of grace
We just need a break
From the headlong race
This is a fine place
Shining face to face
Those bonfire lights in the mirrored sky
The space between wonder and why

She said,
"Yes the line between love and illusion is almost as fine as the gossimer wings of a butterfly or a faery...easy to penetrate but impossible to repair.
"Are our act authentic or merely pretend? Where is the truth of the illusion?
"Do our wishes not sometimes even colour the facts, if they are strong enough for us to look through?
"Perhaps!"
There are things in my life that sort of push and pull me along the way to where I need to go and one of the biggest things I've sort of skipped at this point is to finish my PhD. I did a strong masters practicuum and just dropped out at the Masters degree level but I have a good Thesis topic and
where I found this, I realized its a good way to go.
Assuming of course the old adage.
Spirit is willing. The flesh is weak.
