Everything is better at 3 in the morning

The night sky in the summer is beautiful.  Just looking up at it makes me feel so happy.  Last night I woke up at 3, and wandered upstairs to make myself a cup of tea.  My dad heard me wandering around and came out to check on me (my parents have gotten very protective after my hospitalization...).  We had a good chat about how things are going, consisting mostly of lies on my part, then decided to go stargazing.  He got out the telescope, and found Jupiter for me.  If you haven't seen Jupiter through a telescope, you're missing out on something amazing.  Knowing that there are these other planets so far away, that there are billions of stars that you can't even see with the naked eye.... It makes you feel kind of insignificant, but in a good way.  There was a shooting star, and of course I made a wish :) I would tell you what I wished for, but then it wouldn't come true.
