Do you remember what Cooper said to the old man...

We used to look up at the sky and wonder at our place in the stars. Now we just look down, and worry about our place in the dirt.

I just watched a reel from sunshinenate, and I was appalled but how many childhood dreams I've let die.

I know that as you grow older, bits of you die, but why did I easily give up on them?

This is a note to my future-self. Buy a telescope and get into astronomy. Even if takes decades, just get to it.

I understand that there is nothing more I could add to all this knowledge and beauty, but I could at least appreciate.

The world was very old indeed

When you and I were young.
