A quiet reading
Beneath the canopy of stars, we sit in silence while the sky gathers the stories we bring to it.
Do you remember the way we looked upward, not at the distance between stars, but at the closeness between us? For a moment it felt as if every road had conspired to bring our hands together.
I know the cosmos made no promise. Stars are not witnesses appointed to our love. Still, we borrowed their light to name what seemed too large for the room around us.
Tonight we look again. The stars have moved, though from here they seem unchanged. So have we.
Our story is not fixed in heaven. It lives in choices made on earth: the truth we speak, the care we practice, the freedom we leave each other.
I like to imagine us woven into the night, not by fate, but by memory. Two brief lives finding pattern in the vastness.
Perhaps we were meant to be. Perhaps meaning is what we made after we arrived. Either way, under this sky, I am grateful that our paths once aligned and that tonight, by choice, we are still here.
Take a moment before choosing what comes next.
“Beneath the canopy of stars,
we sit in silence
while the sky gathers
the stories we bring to it.”
