Come what may...

"Come what may, I will strive to never let the starlight burn out." That single sentence embodies all of my new year's resolutions.

I've always wanted to capture some of the magic and beauty of the starlight of the sky. Keep it close to me like a talisman to ward off the demons in the darkness and monsters under the bed. Let it shine and sparkle and touch other people with its purity. Share those ethereal moments when I thought I saw the gossamer-like wings of a faerie fluttering by. And so, that is the point of this blog. To be that pocket that holds the starlight of ordinary and extraordinary nights alike. To treasure those things that make us love, laugh, cry, and smile. To discover some of that child-like wonderment and innocence that most of us abandon at childhood's end. To remind myself that life is made up of all those little moments as well as the grand ones.


Such beauty excites the soul.
