Discuss: Ladder to the Pleiades

Thanks Hannah and Michael,

I wonder how different our adult world would be if more of us could easily call upon the mysteries and insights we were so graciously provided in our youngest years.

Thank you for sharing your story with us Michael and Hannah ... Hannah, I too must see the stars every night and, as someone who has been looking up for 40 years now, I can tell you that the feeling of wonderousness never ceases and the sense of knowing home never fades.

Enjoyed the story tremendously!  You need to take Hannah to Flagstaff, AZ.  The sky there is sooo clear and stars are visible all the time.  Not to mention one of the best observatories in the nation is right there.

What an adorable story. We need more children like this these days!

Touching story… at only 24 I still have a little Hannah in me as well. My Dad and I used to watch the meteor showers under the desert sky and my favorite constellation to gaze at was the 7 sisters, aka Pleiades.
I would recommend reading her “The Little Prince” so that the stars will forever be alive with her, as they are with me.

Thank you

wonderful story. I will attempt to join you in the night vigils!
I have been told that the time for the first daily prayer prescribed for muslims, is in the false dawn when the pleides are rising-does anyone know if that is true?
Thank you Hannah
