Mars and me
It is important to have something in life to truly feel awestruck about. Often I will wake up before the sun, go sit on my back patio, and turn my eyes to the dark sky that just shows the first signs of dawn. Barely visible far away in the sky, faint and glowing like a small flame, is an orange dot. Mars. One day, perhaps in my lifetime, humans will step foot on that orange dot so far from this pale blue dot we call home.
