After your re-entry, remember this moment, this and all other
nights pitched out in the lofty stillness beneath the heavens.
Remember it when tragedy befalls you or hardship comes
knocking. You have hiked the Appalachian Trail, you have
scaled the eastern peaks, and you have walked from Maine to
Georgia. You can do anything.
