Starry Night (Profile Picture Challenge)

I love purple, I always have. Its just such a rich, relaxing, beautiful color. Theres also much variety to the color, from the quiet, subtle lavenders and lilacs to the deep, capturing richness of royal purple.

As I look through the icon possibilities, so many choices, I look for one in particular that seems to represent me as a person. I come across the nature category and find a little purple picture of a night sky.

This particular icon caught my eyes. I love nature. I love the night sky. I love how when I go camping I can just lie on my back at night and look up at the stars. It just feels so right, so calm. It can put a person in their place, looking up at all those millions of stars. A person realizes that they aren’t the only thing that matters in the world and that there are many others out there just like them. They are just a grain of sand on the beach of life. But it can also tell someone that there are other people out there going through just as many trials as you and they are not alone.
