"There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls"
Simplified meaning
Sometimes, there are moments when things seem different or unusual compared to what we expect. Imagine being in a forest at night; usually, you'd hear wolves howling, but instead, you hear nothing from them, and it feels like the moon itself is making a noise. This can be like our emotions or thoughts – we might expect to feel scared or sad but instead, we feel calm and peaceful despite the situation.
For example, after a long, stressful day, you might finally sit down in your quiet room and, instead of feeling anxious, you feel an unexpected sense of peace and wonder. Or think about a time when everything around you was noisy and busy, but you found a moment of solitude and clarity. This teaches us that not everything is always as expected. We can find comfort and unexpected beauty in strange places and times. It's a reminder to stay open to feelings and experiences, even when they differ from what we anticipate.
