Outside my window

I am looking outside my window and I see – nothing. It’s pitch-dark. No lights are on. The world is asleep. There used to be the glow of orange street lamps when I looked out of the window. Not anymore. The reason is simple: we need to protect the earth and we need to save energy (we need to be mindful with our Earth’s resources too). That’s why it is dark when I look outside my window at night. When I can’t sleep (and that happens more often than I want to admit), I look outside. Now that the light pollution is less, I can see the stars shining brightly for me (and for everyone else who is not asleep). It’s beautiful. To think that we live under the same sun and wish upon the same stars – wherever and whenever we are, that’s humbling. It makes me feel very small. But also free. Connected too. Maybe that’s the romantic in me. But shhhh! Don’t call me a romantic because I am not. Not really. Maybe a bit, in a weird and eccentric way.

Ramble ramble ramble!
