Do you ever wish you could see the stars? I mean, besides simply spotting one or two lonely specks of light. When night falls, I want to see hundreds upon thousands of soft, glowing space shards strewn across a dark backdrop, like a mosaic of all the most priceless diamonds. However, we can not do this. The night sky, is one of nature’s most beautiful paintings, and we have nearly damaged it beyond repair. Stars are a few of the only things in space that are visible to the naked eye, and the only indication that we do not walk alone. We know that there is more out there. But, what if, when we can not see the stars anymore, we are truly on our own? How many of us would crack, living in a world where we are enveloped by darkness? If we can not take care of something as precious as our stars, what does that say about us?
