Stars have been a fascination for humankind for decades. The way they shine trough the night sky, the way they can lead a lost traveler to his home has just fascinated us puny humans since the day our kind was born.

We are star dust in all, after all. Stars are and have always been a part of us. Maybe this has caused the fascination surrounding them.

Stars are like guardians in the night sky, observing our actions, looking graciously upon us, protecting us in a way we may never know. Because, without stars, what would we be? Nothing. Little particles in an infinite darkness.

First, the stars, then planets, then us. Because we are made of stars.

I have always had a fascination for stars, since I was a little girl. I grew up appreciating them. I miss looking at the stars. In the night sky in the big city, you can rarely see one or two stars. And it's sad. They were my companions in nights with no sleep and now I miss them.

An article dedicated to all women and little girls that like star gazing as much as I do.
