Ripples in the Night Sky

As the daylight fades from the sky, a moon starts to replace the scenery above the heavens with stars. How come we can only see them at night? Yet it has always been there, it doesn’t hide nor does it have the capability to run away from the Earth. The moon shines second to the brightest object after the sun in spite of that, its surface is very dark with a similar reflectance to that of a coal. Indeed, it was a great night sky.

I see the stars radiate light along with the moon to illuminate the darkness that had befallen the Earth. Did you know that the Earth is light years away from the stars? Do you also know that before you see the stars at night, it had already lived thousands of years in reality? Some of those you have seen were already dead.

At this moment, people may be diligently working on something or may already be asleep. Some may even be unwinding to discharge the stress they have accumulated throughout the day. What seemed to be a night sky full of wonders is just left there unappreciated. With bountiful of resources, people who can acquire them within the reach of a hand, disregards those that are not essential for them anymore.

What I realized tonight is that, the world was built peculiar just like what I saw today nonetheless, it was all made for something. All significant and provides a role to each other. One may not see its value today but, will you still want to wait to lose everything before you realize how much it’s worth to you? There are more to what can just be seen by the naked eyes, heard by some nosy ears, and felt by the bare skin. Open your mind and see the wonders that are concealed beneath the journey we all call “Life”.
