last night, i walked outside. and i noticed the brilliance of the night for the first time. not the night itself, just the sheer resplendence of it. i've never noticed the moon being so big and round and orange. or the stars being so brightly silver. and they all looked like they were winking. like they knew.
and that terrifies me.
because no one knows. no one.

I'm enjoying your blog too and thanks for following mine musings. I usually comment pretty well, but I've been rushed lately. I'll make it up later. And I do love the moon and stars. I know they know me well and they feel like home to me.

I don't know where you are but the moon and the stars and the night are huge and bright here too. It also means its very clear and very cold. Scary and appealing...I know.
