Vast like the desert
Infinite like the universe
My heart & mind
Understanding them both
An endless moment in time

As I stare
Far into the deep black sky
A twinkle in my eye
The light shines from such a distance
That it source is no longer in existence

Personal Legend is the journey
Eternal alchemy is the key
Spirit in my Temple
please guide me
As I stare into eternity
Supposedly the farthest star is 28 billion light years away. The closest is 4.24 light years away. The average is  2.5 million light years away. That would mean most of them aren’t there anymore, we are looking into the past 2.5 million years ago.
