Same Window, Different View

Eight days ago I awoke to find Venus and Jupiter peaking through my window (see: https://eskildoodle.com/2025/08/12/planetary-windopeakers/). This morning it was the Moon paired with Venus peeping through the oval window. Jupiter had moved higher in the sky as seen on the photo on the right, while the Moon had descended into the early twilight beside Venus.

The past week and a half I have been able to revisit places that were special in my youth, and while seen through the same window of my eyes, the views are decidedly different. Time changes how things appear, and though memories can be revisited, they can never quite be reclaimed.
