6th Day - The Starry Sky

"Two things awe me most, the starry sky above me and the moral law within me."
---- Kant

The last several American days kept me fully engaged and provided me with plenty of fun by the visual enjoyment of IMAX and the shopping pleasure of Short Pump.

However, today, the peaceful night sky and the twinkling star helped me to regain my calmness and generate some of my thoughts. It's so lucky to be born a planet full of life in the vast universe, and able to acquire such large knowledge of our surroundings. Looking at the star map and amazed how human-beings have learnt!

Later this night, we had a long talk with our faculty, Mr. Xue. His life experience enlightened me a great deal. Although he narrated his painstaking process of studying in a most plain way, I could still feel the same as he did that time.

Here in the Richmond located in America, hundreds of mile away from my homeland, I am not alone at all. Not physically (cause the various activities), not mentally (cause so many considerate fellows around me).

I know I’m being a little sentimental since it’s the middle of the night. When all the brightness faded away with the moonlight, all there’s left is the profound thought in you deep heart.

Good night! Wish all of you a good night sleep.
