I can now understand the sheer amazement the 80 million immigrants must have felt as they gazed upon the magnificence that is New York City. The city seems like man-made glacier, on the outside a constant frozen expanse of buildings but secretly (like all glaciers) the city is dynamic and ever-changing.
It is mind-boggling to me that so many people can live in such a small island but still find their individuality amongst the towering skyscrapers. But like many before me, I am fascinated with this city. Although it cannot compare with London in history, not can it compare with Paris in aesthetics, New York comes with an unique sense of confidence in its famous streets and diverse people.
From the top of the Empire State building, it is easy to love the city's twinkling lights. There are no stars here but for once, for one island in the whole world, that is more than okay.
