Something that is beyond my finite comprehension (yes, I do understand that stars are made of "gas", etc.... but just how did they get there? *wink*) Something to ponder about how I got here as well... and why? Am I here just to be a wife and mother? Or am I here to make a mark that will help others outside of my immediate family? Is there something alive beyond the stars light that I see now, not just a god-life force, but other LIFE? The old saying that when one looks at the stars they feel like a grain of sand rings true when I think about it while looking at the stars... They are only small pinpoints, like holes poked in velvet in front of a bright light, yet I KNOW they are much more than that. And to think I'm this mere speck on this large rock that has limited influence, but when looking at the stars they have much more influence on others than we think.

Myself.
In the continuum of what is, what else is there? The stars and sky are merely the most dramatic example of the fact that everything is part of everything. What is outside of the Universe? This question doesn't make sense. What is that is not? All. All is that is. Even some small expression of what is is what is All. I am what is, and what is is all.
When I look at the stars, I'm reminded that I am not but a small insignificant part of everything. And it is enough.

This question makes me think of the story of the Lone Ranger and Tonto.
The Lone Ranger and Tonto stopped in the desert for the night after a long day's ride.
They had a had a quick meal around the campfire, set up their tent, then both men fell sound asleep.
Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says, "Kemo Sabe, look towards sky, what do you see?"
The Lone Ranger replies, "I see millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?" asked Tonto.
The Lone Ranger ponders for a minute then says, "Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning. Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant in the universe. Meteorologically, it indicates we will have a beautiful day tomorrow."
The Lone Ranger turns to Tonto, " What does it tell you, Tonto?"
Tonto takes a deep sigh, "Kemo Sabe, you dumber than buffalo turds. It means someone stole our tent."

Several years ago, my husband and I spent several nights in a cabin in the mountains in Colorado. This cabin had a skylight window. As we lay in bed and looked up through that window, we could see literally billions and billions and billions of stars. It was as if someone had thrown a hand full of sand on a very small table. And He has named every one of them.
The miseries of this universe are so magnificent that no one could ever see or figure out all of God's creations. How glorious and awesome is He!

locate your cities community observatory if it has one, and visit sometime throughout the time of one of their purposes. lots of the time, there'll be individuals there keen to showoff their telescopes, and that i'm certain they are going to provide help to word inspite of you want. yet another suggestion is to connect a suitable mag, like Astronomy, or Sky & Telescope. They both have sky maps in them each month exhibiting the present constellations, moon stages, and planet places for that element of 365 days. you are able to also locate them on the food market too, and they have were given web pages as well with novices information. a sturdy pair of binoculars, darkish sky, and a map is all it is required for an nighttime complete of ask your self lower than the celebrities.

I see part of the beauty God has created for us to enjoy. I love to look at the stars in the night sky--it almost seems like I could reach out and touch God. It feels reassuring to me as well, when I look at their beauty and majesty, I have such a sense of peace and awe, and know that God has everything under control, so I have no reason to fear or worry about things in this life. And I just feel blessed and loved. Calmed and comforted. Contented and joyful.

Possibility. I see infinite worlds with infinite ways to live life, the chance of greater future through technology, the peace of the pictures in the stars, somehow clear and yet inexplicable. The stars give me hope.

I see a wonder. To think that my God and my Creator would make a universe of such beauty and awe. How He holds the world in His hand. Even when I look out on a cloudy or even stormy night to know that His hand of protection is around me and that even in the darkest of storm there is still beauty there. My GOD is an AWESOME GOD.

...holes in the floor of Heaven...
I'm not making "light" of this question...it's from a song by Steve Wariner...when I look up, I feel like the eyes of lost loved ones are looking back ...it's both comforting and sad at the same time...this is what I see when I'm feeling spiritual about a starlight night
