We’ve made it a habit to look up at the sky and appreciate the stars most nights now.
It reminds me of a few things all at once.
The first is how crazy the physics of this universe is. The night sky we are looking at is really the night sky from four years ago. That fact always blows my mind.
The second is that you see more of them once your eyes get used to the dark. We see more when we pay attention.
Third, stars are so beautiful. And yet it is so easy to not look up and notice them.
And finally, they always have a way of reminding me and giving me perspective of just how big the universe is. And how insignificant I am in the grand scheme of things.
