By We live in a time where we are consumed by the things that surround us. Too many tabs are open in our brains and often times, we lose ourselves in it all. It gets difficult to filter out loud car horns, city lights and toxic backdrops. From time to time, we should take a moment to appreciate what lies beyond our everyday environment and acknowledge the things we tend to forget. We need to remind ourselves to reconnect with what the universe has to offer, and what our place is, being a part of that configuration. The night sky is a forgotten gem, despite being accessible to us all. Stargazing is one such activity that helps reshape and reset our perspectives.
