Moonlight walking

Imagine this…

You are living on the edge of the city, when there is a sudden blackout. It is night and raining. Not hard rain, just raindrops bearable without using an umbrella. There were no stars on sight in the sky because it is filled with rain clouds. You know there is a full moon because you can still see the circle outline behind the clouds. You are walking outside and without any source of light visible except the moon light. It is not completely dark, you can see the road, the houses, and even the light posts without light. There are no cars and no people around, except of course yourself. Imagine looking at your surroundings with only the moon as your source of light.

That’s what I’ve experience just two weeks ago. As I set foot outside our house, and started walking towards the gate of our subdivision. Its was night, cloudy, rainy, and a little bit chilly. I could have used my cell phone as a light source to better see the road, but it was raining and I wouldn’t make an effort to get it wet. Besides I can still see clearly.

It was like I was in a twilight zone (for the lack of better term) or a hollywood movie wherein the whole earth was shrouded in dark clouds and not even a single sunlight can penetrate it. It was night, but you can see everything in gray. Not clear, but everything can be seen.

That was the first time I experienced it. Walking in total darkness, with only the moon as your light.

And I kinda like it. ^_^
