my starry night

Today in school, we got to go somewhere we wanted to go through indirect cues. It was an exercise in guiding someone without suggesting or directing their experience. I loved my place so much. I thought I would write it so I would not forget.

I am lying on a blanket under the stars. The sky is clear and brilliant like in November. It's cool, but I am warm. I am lying with my arms open. The most significant aspect of the starry sky is its vastness. And my smallness. I am lying there in front of the universe. I am nothing and everything. There is no sound. Just perfect, cool silence. No smells except maybe smoke from a fire far away.

I don't know if I am alone or not. The exercise ended before I got there.

I will do this soon.
