The Rings of Saturn

I love science. My use of scientific metaphors is nearly never ending, so have patience for just one more.

You know that feeling when you're a child and you see a strange new planet or star for the first time. Whether it's on a page in a elementary school book or you're looking through a telescope at the stars, you're almost genetically predisposed to make a 'wow' shape with your mouth and feel a sigh release itself from your chest.

It's at that moment, at least until you fall asleep that night, that you feel like the world around you is huge and full of possibility.

Today, I saw the rings of saturn for the first time, metaphorically. The world around me is huge and full of possibility and I have so much excitement and hope all contained within a little elementary school book page. :)
