Do you remember what the sky looked like today? What colour was it in the day? How often do you look up and watch it? Noses in our mobile phones and homework, we hardly ever look up. That is our mistake.
In the history, people had many ways to be with the sky. Instead of using phones or watches to tell the time, they would look up to the sun and the moon. Tourists didn't have GPS or maps, so they would use the sky to know where they were. For many people, the sky was also at the heart of their stories.
Paul Conway, a psychologist (心理学家), thinks that the sky is someone powerful for many people. It has spirit health through its nice sight.
In Paul Conway's study, some people shared their experience of looking up. Interestingly, they had different explorations. One woman praised the sky as a perfect "piece of art". She had her thought about who and where she was in the nature. At the same time, some said that getting outside would make them feel better and quieter in their mind. By looking up, they would forget about unhappy problems.
So, think back. When did you have a meaningful "conversation" with the sky? It is time to raise our heads and watch the sky!
