Imagine looking out from your window... Seeing the stars... "It looks so close- as if you could just reach out... And grab them. So you do just that. As you extend your hand, the glass window dissolves, your surrounding dissolves and now you are suspended, above ground. As you exert more energy, more focus, you realize that you start to levitate... Higher, higher... Before you know it, you're flying. Nearer... Nearer... Soon, the stars are barely a foot away... Just as you reach out to grab one of this energy emitting ball, it somehow- due to an unknown force- backs away... Further... Further... And so begins the lifelong chase... Between you and the star... Until one day, you succeed.
You recount your feelings...
You are perspiring... You are tired... So tired that your body is running on fuel that you did not know you still had in yourself. You give it... Your best. You reach out and exert your arm, pushing it to its very limit; after all, this is your last shot, might as well make it count.
At first, you do not realize what just happened. A surge of energy floods your veins, filling up your once empty tank to the brim, maybe even spilling out. You feel new again. Now, you open your eyes and you see... Light. Light illuminating your surrounding. So pretty, so magnificent that you forget the chase-how long it took you to reach this point. After almost an eternity, you inspect your hands and realize that that star... That star that you've been chasing all this while, didn't elude your grasp but instead, welcomed it. It, like a bubble, had burst at your strength when grabbing it. Thus, showering the sky with ministars. Now, you close your eyes gently, for your soul and your entire being is finally at peace. Mission accomplished.
