Well, it's consider alot in this kind of lit sky of urban areas. Cause the lights will always cover the brightness of the stars.
& there are in fact hundreds, thousands & millions, or even trillions of stars in just this piece of sky in singapore! But we are only able to see at most 30 stars? (based on my experience)
& similarly, we are just like the stars in the sky! Each & every one of us has our brightness, but very often, our brightness is hidden. It's covered by the lights in the city.
Some are able to overcome these lights & outshine them( stars are approximately 3000 light years from earth) , but some are not ready to give out their true abilities.
But in a suburb, all the stars will be able to shine & the area will be brightened by starlight. & which star shines the brightest, it depends on its own ability.
