A hundred blue tickets,
each completely unique and precisely in place.
I look at the number but the word says
stars.
Go too far and you've lost their light,
too close and you burn
Written so small and so simply on the back of a little blue ticket.
Yet it represents so much.
Light and guidance and protection and
hope.
As human beings we keep looking up,
from our darkest places we reach.
Not to the deep night sky, but to the stars that light it.

A source of life and a symbol of hope.
The lonely, humble, giants of the universe.Go too far and you've lost their light,

Not to the deep night sky, but to the stars that light it.
Our hope lies just beyond the horizon,
Somewhere within those stars.
The darkness Is just an illusion.
So look up.
