Advice from the Night Sky

 

See the big picture

Be a star

Keep looking up

Don’t be afraid of the dark

Stay full of wonder

Expand your horizons

Turn off the lights

 

IIam Shamir

 

One of the things I enjoy most about people from “the city” who come to visit me is to introduce them to the night sky. I continue to be surprised at how many people have never seen the Milky Way, who have never experience and meteorite shower or simply laid out on the grass and looked up into a starry night. It’s inspiring and so much fun for them. I listen to them say, the stars aren’t like this in the valley. That’s the teaching moment.

 

The stars are there just the same. Our clutter of city lights just blocks them out. How many times does our clutter limit our view?
