I once read that stars are made of the same elements of which, we as humans are comprised. I like to watch the stars. I wonder why im so distant, so different from them. Are there powers that decide which masses of elements become burning stars and which form ephemral, impermant beings such as myself? When a star dies it might form a new star or even a black hole. It starts a new cycle. When I die, I expect to rapidly decompose. The acids in my stomach will break down my hollow digestive organs, my eyes will flaten, my skin will dry, and eventally nothing will remain of me but my sun bleached brittle bones. As far as I know I dont get to experience round two. Maybe I'm wrong. Is life as I know it the phrophase of a greater cycle? Am I really so different from a force that is my elemental similie? Stars are like people sometimes. There are stars-like certain people- that are easily recognized. Adverage Joe can point up and find a star in Orion's belt or the northern star. There are other stars--like other people-- that arent as bright or that may be moredistant; some glimmer a little like a woman batting her eyelashes and some shine on the same way whether anyones looking or not, and really dont seemto care whether they're noticed at all.
