Like Shooting Stars

Can we pretend that airplanes

In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)

Recently I've been listening to a lot of B.O.B's 'Airplanes' and happened to discover this beautiful article about shooting stars by Laura. It just touches my heart deeply when she mentioned that shooting stars aren't really rare, but just how rare we stop our busy lives and look up in the sky. It is just overwhelming, especially at this moment :)

In the night sky, we are constantly looking for shooting stars...

  3. Oh, "The Girl, Touched by Stars"... How tender and beautiful!! I completely agree that if we just remember that there's a sky above us and look at it, we would see the stars, the moon and, if we have the luck, a shooting star!
    What a wonderful essay in Laura's blog!...Our souls are "in our hands", we are the ones responsible about them, the ones who must take care of them...
    Thank you for this inspiring post and for the lovely song!:)

  4. What a great concept, it would be so lovely to stop and stare at the sky more often, I guess we all have such busy lives at times, but the sky is such a beautiful comfort :) I think you've portrayed this sense of comfort and happiness we get from the sky so well here, you can see in her face how content she is!
