Looking at the Stars...

Swirling in the Universe, like a droplet of water... so many friends, so many visions, and, looking outside my window, so many worlds tightly woven into this one.

It is good to be alive...

From what I can imagine, there's nothing more Marvelous than being part of such a Wonderful history, encompassing also all the stories, facts and feelings, adventures and misadventures we can tell... : )

But we must learn how to die... Beauty is everywhere, but we're only the droplet. Sometimes we're up, on the edge, other times down, in the shit-hole. And Life may take us anywhere, and we must be ready: if we are to fall, Beauty will still be all-around, although we will not be able to see it. Sometimes only pain comes in,

That's when Faith is useful - it becomes the door to what we know is there, all that Magic, but we can't really feel it...

But, whether we Feel it or not... it's there... spreading through the billions of light-years, through countless planets, almost completely (I guess) oblivious to the fate of humanity or even the planet with all its wonderful creatures and events. We're simply too common, too little, to make a difference in such a Beautiful Cosmos.

But it IS Wonderful to be part, even an infinitesimal part, of such a Beautiful Vastness...

Carl Sagan, we need more of you!! : )
