I look out onto the hill across the valley and I see lights. They make me wonder what is keeping that poor person up this late at night/early in the morning. And then I start to think bigger, how many other people are out there, sitting. Waiting.
Here I sit all alone. Slowly I’m starting to get ready to try to sleep, fortunately I have tomorrow off and my only plans are to catch up on this seasons Stargate Atlantis. It’s so sad though that all of us sit out here, alone.
No matter what is keeping us awake. Psychological woes or physical pains. It’s so sad that there are so many out there who are part of a fellowship that we will never know we are part of. I think of them, I wonder how many of them think about me. I wonder if someone is looking across the valley and seeing the light on in my apartment and pondering the same thing. It’s just a light but it represents comfort, companionship.
I think I’ll leave the light on tonight.
