Thought Provoker #5 and the benefits of night

Hello traveler of cyberspace. Welcome to my blog.

I think it's about time for another thought provoker! Which, if you are unaware, is a concise statement or even a picture, if I'm feeling adventurous, that leaves room for something to be said. Thought provokers are meant to provoke thought.
I'm sure you can tell I'm efficient with my words.

Something I've been noticing, now that school has started and I'm adopting an infinitesimally shrinking sleep schedule, is the way the sky changes at night. I mean, it gets darker, yes. But that's not the point.

Think about the moon. On an ordinary night, what does the moon look like?

The moon is bright, right?
~It's a light in the night, right?
~~"I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam I am."

OKAYOKAY I'm getting back on topic now. Basically, the moon turns really, abnormally bright around 1 or 2 am. It literally brightens to the point where it can just illuminate a driveway and actually cast shadows into a darkened house. 
Pretty spectacular, really.


It's one of those hidden gems in life. Staying up nights seems hardly worth anything-- those are undeniably the lowest points of any day or week. But if you challenge yourself to step outside the confines of your desk and room and explore in the dark, even if it means staring out the window at a moonlit street, you might be surprised what's in store for you.

With that said, let your thought provoker be this:

What is an emblem of mystery to you?

Is it the moon, an impenetrable night, a child's dreams, a tiny smile?



Think about it. Write about it. Create something wonderful with the thoughts inside your head, because that's what we humans were made to do.

Enjoy loveliness and remember to muse :)
