Like Looking at a Toy from One Side
Imagine your favorite teddy bear is standing on a table, and it's looking directly at the Moon in the sky. You’re sitting next to the table, and you can only see one side of the bear, its front face, not its back or its sides. That’s like being “One facing the Moon (a?)”, you're seeing just one part of something that's turned toward the Moon.
Like Your Friend Standing in the Sun
Now imagine your friend is standing outside, and the Sun is shining on them. You can only see their front, not their back or sides. That’s like “One facing the Moon (a?)” too, it's when someone (or something) is turned toward a big light source, like the Sun or the Moon, and you’re seeing just one side of them. One facing the Moon (a?) is when you see one side of something, like a toy or a friend, that’s turned toward the Moon, while the other side is turned away.
