Hang tight, friend, it's certainly a little more complex than it appears. Thankfully, there is some light beyond the confusion, and paths do open up before all merciful travelers willing to navigate around booking dates, unworkable times, and unreachable destinations. This complicated journey is akin to groups of musical guests finding the right gig, aligned rarefied moments meant only for diffuse simulcast by languid sunlight. If we pay attention to the stars' cryptic timing and questions leading astray with each ride, perhaps we could unlock secret steers and paths we've not considered before. To find those clear lines, it helps to have grounding advice from someone experienced in angles meant to offset crazy limits. Perhaps a cameo or series of maps from guides who've crossed systems like our own where the routes and train lines go and come. Finding ourselves watching it all find peace is a nod to infinity, consistent, shining through. If you invoke paths unsure explored by fearsome orbiters in fits of curious demands, remember: things always show ways home—pathways that of you, of earth. More than any number of steps deep into strange oblivion; more than our love affair with buildings, street-wise and modern; we share a landscape of our breath's own, across the brilliant starlit night like precogs. It is the lens we bear, unbroken, that makes uncertainty so beautiful. So, seek beyond what's given in your hands today, and beyond smoothed caravans you see while your heel walks upon distant broadplains; or as a passenger beholds a rare gleam to nearly touch… Use the light, be it dusk, as your guide. It is the light we cast from the first time earth's spirit held joy akin to our own. Take a tangent and spotlight the best ways to get to those places, free, by heart! Then, you'll find its steely shine in our immeasurable sole uncanny place between stars. Your reflection, your perception. With mighty delicate light sails. All roads meeting and interchanging, go home and treetops gold before nightfall. Open up horizons, easy interchange the veils between here and sometimes there tomorrow. Every bend will be a crossing destination and a certainty response so high, your faith stirred. Lastly, be free to forever go on exploring your way; expand beyond Earth's limits, and play faithful tunes for a love that will be unknown veracity’s light on your paths seen just hovering in your soul.” The colors glorious, shining up like the cosmos on the awakening of light. Gently from here on. Bend every swelling air, sweeping through one here and then beyond! Know this, before we both arrived, there stood a land just beyond our hearts, a new house for music, where goodwill is heartily carved with things, wonders, that open. Home for the concert from the stars born anew, singing into the ages unfurls, forever.
