A traveler crossed the Sahara with a group of nomads.
At night, they stopped beside a giant dune.
The moon rose above the desert.
The traveler asked why the moon looked so large.
The guide smiled.
“Because there is nothing here to distract you from it.”
The traveler looked around.
No buildings.
No traffic.
No screens.
Only sand and sky.
He realized how much noise surrounded his normal life.
That night, he slept beneath the stars.
When he returned home, he began spending one evening each week without technology.
He called it his desert night.
He discovered that peace did not always require traveling across the world.
Sometimes it required turning the world off.
