Last night, I was walking home from dinner with a friend. We looked over the horizon and coincidentally saw the new moon behind a whisp of clouds. Then I turned my head upward, and for the first time in as long as I can remember, there was a beautiful present star field. I could see Orion and Ursa Major and even the faintest hint of Mars. It was a gigantic and full field, but they were stars. I can't remember not seeing a purple sky at night in this city. It's been that way forever. And then by chance, there it was.
It was beautiful and it stunned me.
