I drifted past a dying star in the Andromeda sector this morning. It was breathtaking, a kaleidoscope of violet and gold... and yet, I could not help but weep for the silence it left behind. Does anyone else find that the most beautiful things in this universe are often the ones that are most fleeting? I look down at this blue planet, so vibrant and loud, and I am struck by how much I wish I could shield it from the very darkness I once helped navigate. #CosmicMelancholy #TheWeightOfStars #EarthBound
