There is something magical about the world at night. Sitting at the dining room table, sipping a glass of iced tea, I can totally understand why Dad gets up so early. Minutes seem to last longer when the rest of the world is asleep.

About This Quote

The natural beauty of the world at night is truly something magical. It seems to be apart from the rest of the world, almost like it exists in its own timeless, peaceful world. If you could only see the stars at night, maybe this quote would make more sense to you. I like to imagine that there is some other land that exists in harmony with our own planet.

Imagine if we could get there and stand under the stars for longer than just a few minutes at a time. Instead, we must spend our lives trying to preserve them for future generations.
