(Taken on June 21, the longest day of a year.)

The road is going on and on, now straight and smooth. No ups and downs and U-turns in sight. But all I can see ahead is a sunset.

Do you know that we're completely composed of the particles that once were forming stars? Being the heir of some extinct galaxy, not only one maybe, is a strange feeling. (

Cool picture. Where is it?

Territory of Moscow University. This is a street going from the Main Tower to building "A" where I work.

Stardust! My mother wrote a sort of informal thesis near the end of her life (though she didn't know it was near the end of her life) saying that we were stardust. She spent her whole life searching for meaning and that was her current ephiphany. She gave one to every member of her family including my two kids, who were small at the time. I have it somewhere. One day I need to dig it out and read it. I agree that we are stardust. I really still haven't come to terms with her death and I'm more and more like her.

I wonder, did she eventually find what she was searching for? I hope so.

She died very soon afterward, still searching. She was only 62.
