We thought the stars would outlive us, but they, too, will burn out. Maybe that is the most human thing about them— they shine, they fall, they leave something behind.
So do we.
The most human thing about stars is that they die. The most human thing about stars is that they burn. The most human thing about stars is that they carry their own destruction within them.
The most human thing about stars is that they break apart, scattering pieces of themselves into the universe.
The most human thing about stars is that even in death, they create the very elements that give life a chance to exist.
