Isn’t it just lovely to look up the night sky and admire the majestic beauty of the stars? Twinkling non-stop as if to catch our attention, stars serve as a reminder of our own little place in the universe. As Adam Levine croons in Lost Stars, “Who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy?” Makes you think, eh?
