Learning in Life


After a while you learn the subtle difference

Between holding a hand and chaining a soul

And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning

And company doesn’t mean security.

And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts

And presents aren’t promises

And you begin to accept your defeats

With your head up and your eyes open

And with the grace of an adult, not the Grief of a child

And you learn to build all your roads on today

Because tomorrows ground is too uncertain for your plans.

After a while you learn that even sunshine

Burns if you have too much.

So plant your own garden and decorate

Your own soul instead of waiting for

Someone to bring you flowers.

And you will learn that you really can endure,

That you really are special

And that you really do have worth

So live to learn and know yourself

In doing so, you will learn to live.

FAQ about using washable pads!

How do I wash and care for my Moon Times© pads? Taking care of your pads is really easy! 1. Remove the inserts from your pocket pad and soak in a bucket of water (nappy buckets are good as they have a lid, although some women like to make a moon bowl for soaking their pads or buy a special holder- a pretty vase or decorated bowl can work well!) 2. Rise out the water daily (until you are ready to pop them in the wash) 3. .Wash pads by hand or in with your usual laundry. Pads can be machine… Continue

'd actually be interested in buying a moon cup if you sold those too :o) I've had a keeper cup for years but not been at all successful with it unfortunately, wondered if the moon cup would be any better for me.

(Sorry, I realise you sell pads!)

That is interesting I hadn't thought that they were that common, I think maybe they haven't caught on so much in the US or something maybe....

Your moon pads are brilliant, both in color and concept. Do you also market the moon-cup? I have been using that for years and find it really great. Don't know how much money I have saved not having to buy tampons over the years, but I have never been able to get any of my friends or sisters to use it, so now I can point them in your direction! Thanks!
