Tonight, I saw a really incredible thing.
My teacher extracted a dried, dead looking piece of Cladophora hialina ( I know, fancy name) and wanted to put it under the microscope to see its cells properly.
She put water and then showed it to us. To my surprise, it turned out to be alive. Water and the warmth of the class brought it back to life. It was truly amazing.

And then, it got me thinking....What can make us  look alive again?...is there any combinations that will bring us back to life?...
Physically, I truly doubt it....but I think it's clear that I wasn't talking about our bodies.

Could tears wash our soul or mind and give us a fresh start just like the rain washes away every trace?
Could the warmth of the people that surround us  heat us up just enough to bring us back?

Does it have to be someone or something else to do this, or could we do this by ourselves?

In the previous chapter, I spoke about waiting... This one should be a tiny clue on how we can move further after waiting for too long, stuck in time, just like this piece of Cladophora hialina.

oh, it's too bad I didn't take a photo so I could show you as well...
maybe next time
