Remember in the beginning, when I met my Scottish guy and we laid in the grass and looked at the stars. He kissed me for the very first time and the magic had begun. Well, here I was, a year and a half later wondering why my Scottish guy didn't propose to me. Perhaps he wasn't ready to trust me, perhaps looking back I wasn't ready to trust myself with actually being able to completely love another human being, but regardless, I still felt when he boarded that plane that we had unfinished buisness. We weren't at all where I had hoped we would be when he left, and nothing had really been discussed about where we stood. Were we alone? Were we together? I had no idea.
So I got home from the airport and I checked the mail. I ripped open my fancy envelope and about ten sheets of paper fell onto the dining room table. I picked them up and began to inspect them.
"No way," I thought to myself.
Upon a close inspection of my documents, I reconfirmed that my Scottish guy was absolutely the most romantic guy in all the world. There in front of me was my star. He had bought me a star. I received a certificate with my name and the date of my 21st birthday and a quote, "Look to the sky and I'll be there, and I will do the same." The fancy envelope also contained a map to guide me to find my star and it just so happens to be in the middle of the two stars on the right of Orion's Belt.
I have a star. I am a star. Scottish guy made me a star when no could else could. This was way better than an engagement ring. This was by far the best gift I have ever received. I didn't even know that he remembered that I wanted a star, because we had talked about it so long ago. My father and I got out our old telescope, went into the front yard, and looked at my star. Let me just tell you that if I wasn't completely in love with him before, this sealed the deal for me. Scottish guy bought me a star and I was certain that I would never love another man again. He was the one. He was my soulmate, and without him, my soul would be left to wander, forever searching for its mate.

I hope that you go outside every night and see it, when the sky is clear. Night skywatching makes you believe in magic! I do it all the time and it feel so good!
