Enjoying Alone

Last night, I had a moment with my boyfriend.

I looked up, and the stars were brighter than I’ve ever seen them.

I mentioned it to him – and he didn’t seem to care.

Not as much as I did.

For a moment, I allowed this to take away from my feeling of wonder.

But then I realized.

I can enjoy the awesomeness of the stars – their brightness, the reminder of God’s awesome creation – without needing him to enjoy them, too.

And I did.

I took the moment as a blessing of a moment alone – just me, the stars, and my God.
