In the kaleidoscope of infinities and possibilities, one appears and tries its best to stand out as a unique being from birth (Light) to death (Darkness); one is born on Earth.
Yet one is bewildered when it realized how its life is predetermined, dictated and orchestrated by first its biological nature as an animal on its planet, second by its place and period of birth and its family, and third the environment that surrounds one and impact one's entire life: from its choices, its taste, to even its intellectual development.
During one lifetime, one tried its best to absorb everything one could as information, for one is curious indeed. One would do one's best to succeed and be content with one's own life; one is satisfied around the life of other beings who would experience the same journey. One seeks to be happy around others after all.
One would try to love one's self as best as it could, for one always lives with oneself during all its existence.
One will doubt, suffer, hate, cry and die, but one will also live, smile, laugh, love, and most importantly enjoy the pleasures of life has to offer.
Although, one is still tormented about its predetermined life; one fights constantly for free will and decisions that could impact his doomed and expected fate: life and death. May every days of his tragic journey be meaningful and impactful for the ephemeral mankind, one does it for one and the others.
After meditations, when one has had enough of one's absurd and nonsensical existence, its phoenix rebirths on the Earth. One has finally seen the light in the darkest abyss of our universe. It was simply itself, it was right under its nose. For one did not know how lucky it was to live, because one even forgot it has been chosen among others during its own conception. One could have not been born at all in fact. And before one's creation, there was an infinity of darkness, and after one there would be no one.
Hence the life of one is short, but its light can only be seen by those who have sought enough for it. Once the light is found, one realizes how lucky it is to be this unique speck of light in our infinite and dark universe. When the light is conscious of itself, its monochrome life on Earth beams again and even illuminates the dark path of one's peers, for we are all these singular specks of light in the darkness. Again, one lives, and one exists, until its light fades and the darkness come back again. In the universe of darkness, it is so hard for lights to even see themselves.
