When you reach for the stars, you are reaching for the farthest thing

When you reach for the stars, you are reaching for the farthest thing out there. When you reach deep into yourself, it is the same thing, but in the opposite direction. If you reach in both directions, you will have spanned the universe.
What I love about looking at the stars is that although I will never travel to any of them, the light that I see, the photons that are interacting with my eyes, have come from those stars. They have crossed through time and space from the surface of those stars and connected with my eyes and mind. So in a sense the stars have reached out and touched me.
Just circle of life...after all you'll have to put the star back into the sky. And it's the most painful thing you'll ever have to do and that you've ever done. ;)
