➸ cosmos

The glimmering earthly bodies makes me wonder whether our souls were really created from the same dying star. These heavenly bodies make make the lonely hours of the night a little less lonely. That their purpose isn't it? A realisation struck me like crawling cosmos that the atoms of our bodies are traceable to stars that manufactured them in their cores and exploded these enriched ingredients across our galaxy, billion years ago. For this reason we are biologically connected to every other living thing in the world. Every atom in our body came from a star that exploded. And the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than ur right hand. It really is most poetic thing I know about physics: you all are stardust. You couldn't be here if stars haven't exploded because the elements carbon,nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that mattered for evolution and for life- weren't created at beginning of time. They were created in nuclear furnaces of stars and the only way to get into your body was if stars were kind enough to explode.
