Looking at the stars.

[§leepy God]

Does looking at the stars inspire you? Does it remind you of the good times, or better times that will soon come? Does it remind you to keep living? Does it mean peace? List your meanings of what looking at a star means to you.

I just came back from west virginia where the starfield is incredible. The stars remind me of how insignificant I am and how far a distance the light has traveled, and that, what we see happening now is years in the past.

 

[1048576]

Many of the stars we see burned out years ago, and their light is just now reaching Earth.
It reminds me that no matter how hard I try, I can't change anything.

 

[ZeroFox]

Meh, I don't really look at the stars that much.

But I feel like it would be pretty romantic if you had someone special to look at them with lol.

 

[JrdnS]

Does it remind you to keep living? .

yeah cause sometimes i forget to breathe.

jk. they are nice to look at with a girl.

 

[Kinzer]

The blinding city lights in Las Vegas override the stars in the sky.

 

[laki]

Me and my best friend used to go star gazing at night and it was very calming for us.

We would also see random meteor showers that he LOVED and it was good times.

Since I moved to LA though all I see is smog >_>

 

[thecatinthehat]

I'm obsessed with the Sky.

Be it night or day.

The sky always captures my attention.

 

[XACE-K]

I don't always look at the stars but when I do, I begin to feel peaceful and relaxed. It helps me clear my thoughts and forget about whatever is on my mind.

 

[marthanoob]

It makes me feel small. Like playing captain falcon with handicap 1.

 

[ndayday]

Oh, I really like the stars. Looking at them gives me this wierd feeling, not joy or sorrow, but something calming and...comforting I guess.

It's wierd to see the night sky and then the sky during the nighttime, they're so opposite and the sky in the day has clouds and airplanes ripping through the air. When a plane flies at night, it just seems so unsignificant, and nature just overwelms human technology.

...that was deep.

 

[Cashed]

Looking up at the stars makes me feel so miniscule... and makes me want to be out there, exploring, seeing what we haven't discovered, or more of what we have.

About two years ago a storm rolled through my area and knocked the power out for about a week, it was amazing how bright the stars were without all of our modern day lights.

[bored]

It makes me feel calm and at ease. To think thats these tiny little specks of light are really massive and so far away that you can see them from Earth. Its almost unreal when you think about it.

 

[DtJ Jungle]

It makes me reflect upon things that i've done, recently or not so recently. It makes me think if I'm really happy with what I'm doing, or if what I'm doing is right. I don't know...alot of things make me do this

 

[~rh]

I like looking at the stars with my girlfriend. Really nice feeling...

Other than that, it just makes me wonder what the planets that surround those stars are like and what the life on them are like.

 

[OmegaXXII]

I like to look at the stars whenever there's a breeze running, I always think of what's to come in the future, I saw them when I was a young boy, I see them now as a young adult, and hopefully I'll keep seeing them as a fully grown adult someday.

 

[Circus]

Stars never really did it for me. I mean, sure, in a very shallow way, they're kind of inspiring.

But I'm really more of a bright-streetlights-at-midnight kinda guy.

[ranmaru]

I just stand there staring at the stars, and its nice to know other people might be looking at them at the same time I am. Its such a beautiful sight. It makes me feel so good inside. It makes me feel bad I don't spend much time outside at night, I should. :3

 

[Conclusively]

I wish I could see the stars in my city, but there's always lights, so all I see is the black sky.

 

[Jam Stunna]

I love space, I have since I was a kid. I used to dream about flying through the stars on a starship like the Enterprise, until I got older and realized it wasn't real. But still, I like to imagine what's out there, and that someone is looking back at us.

I also find it amazing to think that when you look at the stars, you're looking backwards through time. That's such an amazing and humbling concept.

 

[SkylerOcon]

yeah cause sometimes i forget to breathe.

Breathing is entirely instinctive and your body will do it automatically, unless you do something to trigger yourself to think about it. You are now breathing by your own will, and not by natural instinct. See? But you'll soon forget this and breathe anyway. Even if you do forget, nothing bad will come of it.

And stars make me like I should write. Which I probably don't do enough of.

This.

Sometimes you need to step back and look at things and realize that we're just an insignificant speck in relation to the rest of the universe. It seems pretty humbling.

 

[Lovely]

Looking at the stars remeinds me of how cute I am. ;p

I am here. I think Whitman said it best:

WHEN I heard the learn’d astronomer;
When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me;
When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them;
When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room,
How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick; 5
Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself,
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.

The night sky is something that is so massive, so incomprehensibly large that you just get swallowed up in it: swallowed in its tranquility and eternal watchfulness. It is a very humiliating beauty.

When I die, I want to be looking up at the stars.

 

[Neon Ness]

Ever since I was young... well, younger, I've been fascinated by the stars...

Every time I see that indigo sky that fades into midnight blue, dotted with specks of heavenly light, I feel at peace with the world... Especially when they are surrounding the moon...

Sights like this make me want to do a painting of it, or take a photograph. A twilight sky is one of the most artistically inspiring sights in nature.

 

[Peeze]

During hurricane season when the power goes out, all that fills the sky is stars. Really peaceful.

 

[Kinzer]

Really nice feeling...

Other than that, it just makes me wonder what the planets that surround those stars are like and what the life on them are like.

That's what she said.

I'd assume in appereance they'd be fine...however you would probably die trying to spend a couple of minutes on them.

 

[ZeroFox]

Hahaha, how does that work out for you?

 

[§leepy God]

Stars bring many mystery to the thoughts of humans doesn't it?

 

[smallwolf24]

I like looking at space, it feels as if I'm falling so I have a sense of fear but it's calming at the same time it's weird I wander many times into space.

 

[CompassTosser]

All they do is make me stop and think...

 

[snowaxe]

I think of the stars as the amount of things you have to do, which is alot.

 

[chaos_Leader]

I do enjoy looking out a the stars every now and then, picking out the constellations. A few years back I had the opportunity to observe Mars while it was very close to Earth.

If you go to a very arid area, like the deserts of the American west/southwest, you will get the best stargazing short of actually being in space.

there's a reason, the moisture in the air refracts some of the light from the stars and diffuses the image, the same way frosted bathroom windows provides privacy. So an area with very low humidity will refract the starlight the least, allowing you to see far more stars and in more brilliance than you would otherwise have with less humidity.

 

[Red Exodus]

The lights in the city make the stars hard to see so I can't stargaze anymore. I like looking at clouds though, I don't know why.

 

[Zero Beat]

I think about

-when we'll inevitably find other civilizations.
-Is that a QUASAR I'm looking at?
-Religion never ceases to make me l.o.l.
-human nature takes over and I feel a slight sense of fear of the unknown.

Yeah...So what?

 

[Hylian]

Looking at the stars is kind of like looking into the past. For all you know that star isn't even there anymore because of the amount of time it takes for the light from that star to travel to earth.

 

[Smash_Gigas]

Unfortunately there's too many trees where I live.

The stars in the desert are beautifull--not a single cloud to hide them. ...Reminds me of my past. I think you can tell by my sig I like the night sky. XD
