100 Days of Wonder – #48

by Jess Guth

I’m sticking with the moon theme. This time from January 2023 though. This particular evening was special. We were celebrating our 20th anniversary with dinner at the California Grill at the top of the Contemporary and after having watched the fireworks from the balcony there we finished our meal and then strolled through the hotel grounds and out onto the jetty on Bay Lake. It was a clear and cool night and it felt like there was magic and pixie dust in the air. The moon was bright and its light reflecting on the lake a perfect silver. I remember standing at the edge of the lake looking back at the hotel and thinking that this is what happiness feels like. But it felt like more than happy because happiness seemed to fleeting an emotion, this felt more permanent, settled and real. Everything was just as it should be. Those moments of complete clarity and knowing that you are right where you are meant to be in this universe are rare and the feeling hard to hang on to and that’s why I love this photo – it takes me back to that moment and that feeling.
