[ WP ] Stars have brilliant deaths , large explosions given a beautiful name . Men are granted nothing so glorious .

Shoot for the stars they had said. Hah. Fucking optomists. Why would we reach towards the terrors of the universe? Single giant searing swirling nuclear combustions capable of ending entire planetary systems. Hah. That's what an optomist tells you. That keeping the end goal in mind is all you need. That clinging to a fucking distraction is going to keep you working and in good mental health. But why the fuck would we want to reach for a star? That's mankind for you. Striving long and hard towards idiopathic goals with such fervor. A fervor that nearly burns as hot as a star. They just forget the individuals. They forget that a goal is not a life. That joy is not progress. So it ends that one small life being stomped out in the never ending march to our next goal will never burn as bright as our next star.
