You know, I don’t gaze at our stars enough. Maui is such a great place to look up. 3,000 miles from anywhere with a lot of lights, it is super amazing to just look up.
It might actually be a good hobby to start. We went on a full moon star gazing trip last year on a boat out of Lahaina (about 25 miles from home). The trip featured a renowned astonomist who pointed out so many interesting things in the sky. Planets, constellations (complete with stories), satellites. I went begrudgingly but became an enthusiast.
Somehow it’s reassuring to know how small I am in the scheme of things. I like believing I’m part of something bigger .. kinda like believing in Santa. Since it is so clear here, I may just invest in a small telescope.
I have so much to learn. Time to un-rust that brain!
I live believing in the same thing....we ARE part of something bigger.
