They say that the moon was formed when
a giant planet collided into what is now our Earth, and a piece of
our planet broke off and started to orbit the newly damaged planet
left behind. They say that this is why the Earth is not a perfect
sphere. And they say that this incidence was crucial to the formation
of life on Earth, for without the moon there would be no us.
And there the moon remains, beautiful
yet barren and remote, circling the green Earth in its dark
loneliness, pushing and pulling our oceans and keeping us alive.
What if the same thing could happen to
us as human beings? What if our whole lives we were placed on a
certain path, and we were meant to follow this path? And if we strove
towards our goals and never strayed? And then, what if someone else's
life collides into yours?
And what if the collision was so
magnificent, that your path is altered forever?
And what if a part of you breaks off,
never to return again, but remains somehow ever present?
And what if the new you is now a mashup
of you and all the little pieces that the other person left behind?
And what if... the new you now contains
new life?
There are different kinds of people in
this world. We all meet, converse, influence each other in little
ways. There are leaders and there are followers. There are decision
makers and there are executioners.
And then there are those who make life
their own game. Who squeeze it by the balls and refuse to play by the
rules. There are those who are afraid of nothing.
