3am

3:00am. Can’t sleep, so I took my dog, Charlie, out in the front yard and let him pee on his favorite tree and I looked at the sky and all the stars. I have always loved the sky and all the colors and the clouds and the stars and the sun and the moon and the birds. Pretty much all the stuff beyond the face of this planet. It seems so overpopulated and we spend so much money every year on research on how to prolong life and we spend so much money every year imprisoning those who willingly take lives. Sometimes I think it would be so cool to live back in the 1800s. All of that open land..all of that freedom to wander from place to place and no city lights to block out the beauty of the night sky.
