"Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy."
-Eskimo Proverb
I stared at the star-filled sky, remembering the quote that a friend sent me. Sitting on the grass, beneath the cold damp earth where someone I love lies, makes me want to go back to the days when life still has meaning for me.
Without him, life would be uneventful. . . . Or so I thought.

"I saw also that there was an ocean of darkness and death, but an infinite ocean of light and love, which flowed over the ocean of darkness."
-George Fox
Life is a whirlwind. It could make you happy for a while, then sorrowful for the rest of the time. I've experienced joy, love, resentment, failure and darkness in this what we call life. And in that never-ending darkness, I somehow found the light.

"If man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live."
-Dr. Martin Luther King
I've been surrounded by the blinding light since forever. Every step has to be thought thoroughly. A single mistake can ruin everything. But not this time. Especially when I finally found something that I know, could make me happy for the rest of eternity.

"Love can not save life from death, but it can fulfill life's purpose."
-Arnold Toynbee
A star shines brightly in the darkness of the night. Everyone loves its light; the happiness it brings to one's soul. But one doesn't recognize it, simply because, he has a star of his own.

"Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live."
-Norman Cousins
No one owns the sky, the stars, the moon, the clouds, nor the sun. But would you believe that I once had my own sky? A starless sky that I loved. But then again, I had to let go of that sky, cuz someone just came and filled him with stars.
