Nightly Thought
SO i was biking back to Signal Huset (my apartment on the island of Alma) from taco night with some friends and i looked up at the stars. I know i am quite far from home but it still does not change the fact that when i look up at those stars i was still awestruck. From where i was riding there were alot, but if you have ever been in the middle of nowhere then you would understand my statement of how magnificient the sky can truely look. Beside the point, just looking at those stars made me think about how fascinating the universe is. The short stick on the fact is i often think about things and just never tell them. In fact a person may be talking to me, but rather i am thinking about some extreme in the world, or random event, only pretending to pay attention to that person. Back to the fact...the universe is the one thing that never ruins my day. I look at it and just try to on a scale i can understand the beauty and perfection it represents. To me, it represents the unknown...the amazing...perfection....infinite...beauty...and the all knowing. Just looking at a few stars amazes me. Those images i am seeing are million...billions of years old. Most of those stars for all i know may have already blown up into star dust...on there own journey to produce more stars, or even better...life. We are all made of star dust, hell our planet is made of some star dust. So if you want you can actual think of the universe as its own creator and life cycle. Destroying itself, and giving birth to itself over the finite period it has existed. If you ever have a chance i would suggest looking up at the stars. For me it personally helps me think clearly and allows me to let myself go. For you...well thats a discovery you'll have to make on your own journey.

Don't you remember those stars you would look at when you where in Mammoth? You would be scared because it was soooooo dark but now you can appreciate the calmness and being able to keep a clear mind!!!
