Partial to the night sky

'If you could peer far enough into the night sky, you'd see a star in any direction you looked. When would you sleep?

- When I'd had my fill of dreams and stardust, which is likely never. If I didn't have to sleep to function, I wouldn't do it, there is too much I want to do. I prefer the dreams you have when you're awake.'


I just answered this question on my Blogger profile (if you click it, it keeps asking you a different random question, but you can only save one on your profile) and I just wanted to post my answer here. It's how I feel about travel, and life in general. Travelling is one of my dreams. It makes me feel happy. It increases some people's anxiety (don't get me wrong, if I miss a train I panic like anyone), but I find the thought of being in a different timezone, a different world, strangely comforting. It makes me remember both how insignificant we are in this huge world, but also how very important each human being on this earth is.

And if you feel homesick, just remember that no matter where you are in the world, you're still 93 million miles from the sun. And you can always go back home.

Yeah, I'm one of those whimsical people who likes to write about stuff like this.

-- 93 million miles - also worth a listen, and also starts about 30 seconds in.
