The night sky...

Is really rather beautiful dont you think? Perhaps you've never really bothered to look. To be honest, I don't think I had until just over a year ago. Why would you? It's just a load of darkness with the occasional little sparkle.

But it's the night sky that holds so much in it. It's full of beauty, delight and wonder. And I have to say I could now spend hours just watching the stars twinkle away. It's just full of magic.

Each star is different to the next. Some appear brighter than others, others you can only see while looking at a brighter star, it's truly fascinating. There is nothing like a clear night in which to lay and look out at the stars.

In my opinion there are no real words to describe it. For it's when you look out and appreciate the beauty of such things that you realise how wonderful things really are. Everything is wonderful.

Life is what you make it it has to be said. But beauty is in everything and everyone in some form. Every one of us has the opportunity to see and soak up beauty. It's a shame that there is barely anything anyone can do to encourage others to take a look every so often.

Appearances can be deceiving. When you look into the sky, and watch the stars you'd think that everything out there was so peaceful and lovely...but in reality, outer space is a clever reflection of what is going on inside your head.

Generally people have this front when you first meet them, they are seemingly nice. In general, people are not. This is because people shy away from things that they deem bad inside themselves. And inside their minds there are explosive things happening, destroying and creating. Much like space. It's looks peaceful, but there is constant destruction and constant creation. It's really rather wonderful. When you next watch a programme on space, just think for a few moments about the inside of your mind. You will see.

The beauty of people, and the beauty of space is much the same. You just need to look at these things in a slightly different way.
