“The sky is the source of light in nature and governs everything”

For some, the sky in its vastness and obscurity makes them uncomfortable; but I’ve always loved it! The sky is beautiful and shape shifting part of nature, with the ability to go from clear blue sky to the one filled with clouds to a reddish orange sunset, to a dark purple or black night sky speckled with little stars.

“The sky is the limit and never let nothing stop from accomplishing whatever you want in life” this quotes came from very special person to me i.e., “MY PAPA”. At the time I did not understand what he exactly meant by the phase but as I grew up and matured by the quote started to make more logic and I eventually understood what he actually meant! So far my life has been a combination of positive and negative things. They force me to defend myself. At times, I gain power by staring at the sky, imaging billions of lives; what they are undergoing and the feeling of joy and heartaches because sky always reflects our thoughts.

The sky is a loyal companion. It never leaves us alone. It’s always watching and knowing us in our light and dark moments. Sky unifies as changing forever just as we do. Everday it’s a different version of itself. Sometimes weak and wan; sometimes strong and full of light. The sky understands what it means to be human. Like: Uncertain, alone, cratered by imperfection. Yet it never fails to amuse us. We would go through a tough time and the sky still there healing our tired soul.

Its okay to rest for a while, its totally okay to disappear with a heart soaked in pain. It’s okay! I had seen people faking a smile and making others believe that they are the happiest person in this world. But you know what it does? You know what faking does? – -it doubles the pain, during night time when you go to bed and realize that it’s serious! And you would have told your family or friend or someone. But that regret of betraying makes you suffer more. Be the night sky that the moon disappears but still gives brighter light tomorrow. As well as your feeling do disappears .take rest, face your fears, work on your troubles and meet your people with” SMILE”.

Sometimes, it’s definitely feels the way like things happened for a reason. Like the universe is conspiring, pushing, hinting and hoping. But even still, in these instances you see significances not in greater power like fate or the good or destiny but simply in the “reason you have found with the sky companion”. Because “the reason” we find are what our heart and soul truly, strongly wants. It feels like it’s MEANT TO BE not because it’s; but because we want it to be.

Being vast and grand, the sky does not intimidate us mortal beings. Instead, it empowered us on the one hand. We are promised of knowledge that we can know things beyond our self. While it’s true that wisdom starts with wonders, it does not end with wonder. By knowing, we connect. We stretch the invisible line between our eyes and the sky. And realize not only we; ourselves exist, other things in the universe too exist. That is we share the time and space with sky! Through the connection, we are able to obtain knowledge and feel that we belong to happiness. And the happiness is the ultimate humans need!

“There is always something new to see in the unchanging sky to!”
