The star that shone mighty bright

Ever wonder why the stars shine

so high and bright ?

give it a moment,

and dwell on it again...

Ever wonder why they seem extraordinary

and yet ordinary in their universe ?

take a harder look,

and ponder a bit...

Ever wonder how they transcend

millennium and yet exist ?

imagine this for a while,

and reflect inward well...

Ever wonder how you wish to be alike

and the road to it seems long distant ?

rewind your life,

and see yourself in their eyes...

That's right.

Aspire to exist

in a world of many.

strive to shine

despite the night any.

Be alive

to let your dreams take the flight.

you have only but one life,

to be the star that shone mighty bright.

A philosopher in a poet's mind, enlightening with words of wisdom made to make the hardest of heads comprehend. Inspiring all to journey within themselves and unleash and learn the hidden secrets of who we are and can truly be. Bravo! I give it five out of five Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!

Thanks for being, so kind with your words, Bear!
Yes, the greatest quest in life is to know, who we are truly and what's our purpose in this life?
I came across this quote someplace, "Life isn't finding yourself, but creating yourself". And, I truly believe we have to create ourselves in becoming the best of us, shining bright like a star, giving light to others :)
Glad, to know your views on the write. Thanks a lot!

Stelllar! Skilfully shifting the point of view - 'rewind your life' 'see yourself in their eyes'.
