When the Afterglow Fades

Never forget the longing to gaze up at the stars, and never lose the courage to walk through the night. When dawn breaks, people gather up a ray of light. When the last glow fades, people return a ray of light. When darkness falls, people point fingers at one another. In the endless night, there are always those who hold aloft the last embers of civilization, searching upstream for the dawn soon to come.
