Today I was highly bummed. Still am. The urge to perform throttling me! And there as I was walking on the busy, dusty, full
of glaring headlights road, I look up to the see the crescent moon, setting. Following the sun closely towards the west.
There it was shining back at us. And then I start realising how out there is a world so hostile to life right in our field of vision,
and here we are thriving in billions not so far away. It made life seem so delicate. Like any disaster of astronomical proportions
could easily wipe us all out. Our thin atmosphere being the only thing keeping us from life and death. For a moment
everything seemed inconsequential. All of my life worries seemed mundane, stupid, foolhardy. Only for a moment, till a
glaring headlight brought my attention back down to earth, down to my gloom, my evening walk.
