Below, an insignificant figure sat on a small ridge of ice. She continued to stare into the sky for a long time after the tiny speck of light had vanished.
And then she turned back to return to the habitat. There was no use continuing to watch; it would be nine months before their journey would finish. There was a lot for her to do before then.
Estrela Carolina Conselheiro was, at last, home.

Life doesn't travel in a straight line.
Sorrow and gratitude. At the limits of your endurance they are one and the same.
No feeling is final.
~ Rilke
The impediment to action
advances action. What stands
in the way becomes the way.
- Marcus Aurelius
