I didn’t think

I would be able to see the stars so clearly that day.

It felt like I finally got that second chance to spend time outside in nature.

There was no rushing to my next destination

I could think, get lost in the night sky, and see the beauty around me.

It was breathtaking to see, and I initially didn’t want to take a picture of this moment because I was in it.

But letting this sky fade from my memory made me snap a picture, knowing I would never forget it. If I did, I could pull up the image and know this was the day everything came clear.

If I allowed the light into my life and accepted that the darkness would be there, too.

Because in the darkness, light, like the stars, always guides us home.

      Thank you. I appreciate your kind words. It’s been a while since I’ve written anything, but it’s good to see that I can still write a good piece.
