I wish my girlfriend cared about stars this much. I remember one night we walked outside and Orion was on full display right in front of us and I started explaining how to spot it via the the 3 stars on its belt, but she got bored and looked away. And then an enormous shooting star, the shooting star of a lifetime shot straight through Orion, like the hunter was shooting an arrow across the sky. And I sat there stunned. But by milliseconds, she had missed it. What a beautiful shared moment that could’ve been. Lost. >:(
