Stars form into shapes in the sky, constellations, pictures, like dreams and ideas form in our minds. We start off with one thing, that very first star, because in the back of your mind its always stood out to you, so you grab it, and dwell upon the beauty of it for a significant amount of time. Then after the beauty of that one little distant flame seems to flicker a dimmer shade, you notice the one near it, and the ones near that one are even more peices to this puzzle, and you slowly begin to gather them like a child gathers a seashell collection at the shore. And as you collect you start to arrange all these stars in the palm of your hand, holding them for dear life, until you have compiled a beautiful and unique blueprint representing it's and your individuality. That one bit that you have in your hand, is finally mapped out, finally perfect, brilliant. So you let it go, in hopes that it will all stay as mapped, and in hopes that it will lift you higher. And that blueprint you let back into the atmosphere illuminates the black velvet night sky in that one little patch, but lasts a lifetime. For some reason it warms your heart, because you know you made it, you know you accomplished something. So don't let your dreams and ideas flicker out, build on to them, because someday you could illuminate the darkest part of the sky, and it can be the most rewarding feeling in the world.
Your mind is a beautiful thing; don't waste it.
