Last night I got a tour of Aberdeen by car, from a student at the other University in Aberdeen (Robert Gordon University or RGU), a Frenchman in a kilt. From the edge of the port and along the beach road at night you can see all the lights of Aberdeen blurring together under the rain. And past them darkness, plunging into the stars. Its incredible. The lights of LA and NY seem to glow, throb and expand beyond all lights, they're almost intimidating. They make you seem small and lost in a sea of other people rushing around. But here I feel like I matter, like I'm big enough to do something on my own.
Maybe people are like moths, attracted to the light that eventually causes their lost flutterings until they die.
Enough silly poetic ramblings.
