Quote by Walt Whitman

The moon gives you light,

The moon gives you light,

Summary

and the ego gives you darkness. The moon is a gentle source of illumination, casting a soft glow that guides us in the darkness of the night. Similarly, our ego, fueled by our desires and insecurities, can cloud our judgment and lead us astray. While the moon represents light and clarity, the ego represents ignorance and confusion. This quote reminds us to not let our ego overshadow our true essence, and instead, seek the gentle illumination of self-awareness and humility.
