“The night hides a world, but reveals a universe”Close your eyes and travel back to a time when you were a kid, outside, staring at the stars.You’d lay on your back, drawing the constellations you knew with your finger.You probably wanted to stay there forever, looking for comets and falling stars, hoping to catch a glimpse of them and just loving that peaceful feeling that naturally comes with it.
I always wanted to be an astronaut as a child. The dark night sky with shining stars never failed to amaze me. I would stare at them for hours. The longer you stare the more they appear, captivating you more and more by second. Years later, this beauty still mesmerizes me. While gazing up at the stars, I feel a sense of peace within me. It grounds me, humbles me, calms me and holds me at wonder all at the same time. At first they're beautiful then it slowly makes you realize how vast is the space you're looking at and how small you are in comparison and how insignificant all your problems are.Since the very beginning, stargazing has been the perfect stress reliever for me. It has now become a daily routine for me as it gives me the perfect solitude place and time where I could be all by myself, looking up in the sky and contemplating how beautiful life is. It seems like the only time I can sit quietly and really take in the surroundings.It teaches me to be grateful and humble and all the thoughts in my head which were messed up gets properly organized. It is surprising how many feelings can it generate.It is said that diamonds are a girls best friend but for me nothing can beat these diamonds in the sky.If you never tried it before, try it tonight! Experience the nature in its most beautiful and pristine form as it is said experience nature, experience life, experience yourself. I'm sure the beauty would leave you dumbstruck. The stars shining above are a billion of years old. They have stories to tell, mysteries to unfold. All you have to do is just look up.How does stargazing makes you feel?
