Looking into the Stars

The sky is black with a hint of light to the far northeast and northwest.  Cassiopeia is above and waiting for meteors to begin lighting up the sky.  There was no disappointment this night. The Perseid Meteor shower began to light up the sky.

I had the lights turned off on the back yard deck, laying on my back with a pillow and a blanket. The significance of people and our day to day troubles seem minute when looking into the heavens and the stars.

Two hours laying there looking up at natures wondrous light show.  I am not sure there are any lessons from this experience, but a more tranquil night I can't remember.
