Universe's Gift To Man

(Two nights ago) I took a moment to pause, to marvel at the midnight sky. The moon was full and the sky was clear. Clouds scattered across what looked like a curved atmosphere. And the stars were beautiful and bright. I took a long pause and stood out in the lighted darkness and appreciated everything around me. Everything was calm and quiet, even when they actually were not. But the beauty of nature was unmistakable. And for one moment, it was as if I was looking through the atmosphere down on planet Earth.

Today I appreciate all that's natural, the universe's gift to man. May we preserve them as they are.
