one small thought

The entire universe is collapsing. Yet you are arguing with me.

Haha I love these lines. I've just gotten over the sci-fi marathon, namely, with the doctor.
Doctor? doctor who?
Yea, exactly.

Ok, serious. A lawyer and a sci-fi nut; a lawyer and a graphic designer; I don't blame you. I don't see a straight connection etiher. But here's the deal. Lawyer, that is the adult form of me, okay? I have been very different things way before that. The truth is whichever form I take I am still me.

When I was little, I once walked back alone from my mate's place in sunset. Through a valley, across a stone bridge and along the bank of a river. On the red-brick footpath that stretch into the eternity, a new moon rose above the river into a sky of a thousand colours. There and then, I saw a small lightening, size of my palm, appearing before me and descending into the bricks. And I watched it disappearing. The bricks were barrier to my sense: they were solid existence in which I believed.

For a split second, I realised that if I touched the mini lightning, I might never return home. Despite all its downsides, I still had a home to go to and I did not want anyone to worry. So I did nothing. If anything, it was not fear, but love that dispelled the temptation to touch it. The lightning disappeared quickly. If it lingered for any longer, what could have happened?

One small thought: I'm not gonna break anyone's heart. That was enough to live for.
