I have noticed these days that it is getting more and more difficult to see the eyes of the stars at night. I remember a time when I could look up and see the millions and millions of points of light in the night sky. That was way back when I was a little girl. I would sit outside and stare up at the stars. Just the tiny sparkling dots in the night. I lived way out in the country back then. That was 19 years ago. Now I live in the more populated areas. The street lights are so bright that I can barely make out the most of the brightest stars. Maybe it is the progression of change, that soon all the light that we generate would soon blot out the stars to the point where we can no longer see them. Every year people are going out more into the country, cities are getting bigger, and there is a need to spread out more. I see it all the time. Now when I want to go out to see the stars properly I need to drive at least an hour to see the stars clearly. I enjoy the night, watching those millions of unblinking eyes in the sky. Maybe they are the eyes of the gods, sitting, watching, waiting, not judging us as we go about our lives. Some day I feel when the stars are blotted out, we will wonder what happened. Maybe then we will turn back to them.

I live to serve my spirits, wolf, raven, raccoon, panther, bear, grandmother earth, grandfather sky, and the great creator. The all watching ones.
