I visited a friend last night who owns a house with a backyard that overlooks Cincinnati. There is something about a city at nighttime that I, and many other people, finds beautiful. It's the brightness of the lights in the dead of the night. It represents a land of uncertainty and exploration. It makes me want to visit and just walk around. It makes me wonder though. Why do I appreciate these huge skyscrapers and the bright lights more than I do the nature I am overlooking to see them? The darkness of the wooded area also represents a place of mystery, yet I don't find myself interested in that.
