Fairy Tale Jungle Nights

I’ve noticed a somewhat strange and beautiful phenomenon in the jungle. In the rainy season, the sky is often filled with grey clouds, especially during the nights when the falling rain is a background for lovely, dreamy sleep. But in lucky moments, the clouds open, forming a window into the universe beyond. The view through this window is indescribably beautiful. Few places on earth will you find such a perfect view of the night sky, where even the farthest stars and planets shine so brightly it takes your breath away. On these jungle nights, when I look to the heavens and find that the window is open – that the clouds have broken to allow me to admire some of this night sky – I feel that life is a fairy tale.
