      An ex moved from a nearby city to very near me. On the first night, I asked if she could hear the train whistle. She said yes and I remarked how cool that was. She didn’t understand that I meant, you’re very near and we hear the same thing. As mentioned at the beginning of this paragraph, we broke up.

    Starting out, my wife and I were long distance.

    Things like looking at the moon and stars were a small way we felt together, even though we were states apart. There was a train that came by at about midnight, every night. I lived close enough to the tracks, she could hear the horn over the phone. That first night we were in that room, physically together, that train sounded so loud. It was like I was really hearing it for the first time.

    Even now, when one of us takes a solo trip, I catch myself looking out a window once it gets dark. Something about the thought, that chance moment that she’s looking outside, too, makes it feel like she’s right there beside me, even if it’s only for a second.

    There’s a beautiful Tang Dynasty Chinese poem about this idea: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quiet_Night_Thought

    床前明月光 疑是地上霜 举头望明月 低头思故乡

    Before my bed lies a pool of moon bright I could imagine that it’s frost on the ground I look up and see the bright shining moon Bowing my head I am thinking of home

      李白, every schoolchild in China has to learn this poem. I don’t think much of that translation, but I guess there’s a reason they’ve done it that way.

      Moonlight shines at the foot of the bed,
      Like frost on the ground.
      I raise my head towards the bright moon,
      Then look down and think of home.

      Yeah, I was thinking Grants Pass to Tigard. Most likely the kid moved to a bigger city.

        Or from Portland to Corvalis for OSU, or inverse for PSU.

        As long as we all agree with the assumption of Oregon.

      I mean, if someone moves to the other side of the planet, you won’t both be able to see the moon at the same time, but at the end of the day, there is only one moon. We all see the same moon.

        Opposite sides can see the moon simultaneously. It will be for a shorter period, but for all two points on the earth there should be at least a single time per moon orbit that the moon is visible by both at the same instant.

        The moon is reversed if the other person is seeing it on the other side of the planet, so technically not the same moon face.

        Clarification:

        I did not mean the dark side, we can’t see that. I meant the orientation. Like this:

        Moon orientation.

        Some goes with east and west.

            We can all see the dark side every month. That’s what new moon is. It’s the far side we can never see from Earth, since the moon is tidally locked. I think only a couple dozen Apollo astronauts have seen the far side with their own eyes.

    And even though I know how very far apart we are

    It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star
