Stars

I used to look at the night sky. I used to look at the stars.I’d say to myself “I want to be as bright as them”, but then I realized that they all dull in comparison to one another. There is not a single star in the sky that can truly beat out another. They all one day fade. We all one day fade. Running the race of life until one day we stop. We all have to stop. We all breathe our last breath sooner or later. So why waste our chance looking at the stars. Why waste your time under the heavens, running a race that can never be won.

We all dream that one day we will reach the stars, but what else is truly at that peak? How far would you go to see your success? Who would you have to step on, and would you stomp their flame just for yours to grow?

The sad truth is we are all slaves to this world. We all run the race that can never be won. Individuality is a myth for so many of us. We live with that nightmare every day.

I used to wish to be as bright as the stars but the truth is that to reach the top is to hit the bottom and I pray that I never kill a fire to fuel my flame. The sky’s the limit that we shouldn’t try to reach
