I was in the band of totality for the solar eclipse yesterday, and I found the whole experience to be really incredible. It was honestly one of the most awe-inspiring event that I've ever experienced in my life. The sheer awe of seeing a darkness and black sun of totality is something that can't even be put into words. The partial phases of it were fascinating and strange as well, but it was nothing like the totality.

Not only was it an incredible experience to have, but I honestly feel better after having experienced it. I just have a different outlook on life, and I feel like I'm able to connect to people better and not be so anxious. I really don't know how this is possible, but the eclipse truly was a wonderful experience that built compassion and understanding within me, and it really helped me to rediscover things within me that I had forgotten and pushed aside for years.

In fact, I found the experience so incredible that I think I'm going to start traveling to see other eclipses in the future if I'm able to afford it. I'm already planning to travel to see the eclipse in 2024. I've always been fascinated by astronomy, but I have to say that the eclipse was much more than a mere astronomical event. It was a fully immersive experience that shows us things that us humans are often unaware of...... As a science minded person, I normally wouldn't be into the idea that the heavens have an impact on our mind and moods, but this eclipse showed me that despite what "science" says...... they clearly do.
