A Space Adventure
I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Words could not describe the ecstasy I saw. Let me rewind:

I was surrounded purely by star and far away planets. I could see flying comets and their beautiful tail. I hovered in space for quite some time. I felt eyes pinned on me, but I could not tell where they came from, until a brave little star approached me. It said with its high pitched voice, “Hello, young one. What brings you here?” It had no mouth, none that I could see.

“I don’t know. I don’t remember anything. Could you help me?” was my reply.

“Oh, I see. You are one of them. We were told to take you there. Please follow us.”

I grab hold of the star. Some others formed a perfect circle in the vacuum and started spinning. The circle was then filled up with something light blue. Some white spots appeared and disappeared here and there. The star I was holding on to suddenly launched forward into the tunnel, bringing me along with it. I quickly shut my eyes for some unknown reason. It just seemed like a natural thing to do; or rather I’ve been watching too much television.

I opened my eyes to find a dry deserted land. The ground looked like it has been in drought for years. The cracks in the red land were huge. There were so many of them. Smallest one I could see was one that possibly could be half a meter, more or less. I jumped a bit to get some stamina up, but surprisingly, I launched up higher than my own height. It didn’t look all that hard to jump over the miniature canyons, but looks can be deceiving. I leaped forward, but the gravity was too low, I almost fell into the crack.

After a few more leaps around, I mastered jumping from land to land without the risk of falling into the cracks, but then again, I could jump out of the gaps oh so easily because of the lack of gravity. Before I knew it, I had gone so far away from where I originally stood. Still no sign of life in sight, I attempted to

    After giving the pile of old tree limbs she was pointing at a good second stare I saw it. There was a roof slightly sticking up from a mass of brush. I had lived right up the hill from this location for 9 years and had been down to the camp dozens of times, but never have I ever noticed this small roof that was roughly 100 meters away from the camp. We sprinted on through the scraggly brush, being pulled back on by plenty of branches and jumping over small creeks. Tumbling, jerking, and fleeing was pulling everyone back, but yet was pushing everyone forward. We stopped dead in our tracks after what felt like hours of sprinting and adjusted to the spontaneous sight that was in front of us, sending my eyes into…

    In the middle of the night I heard a noise I woke from my slumber to see all sorts of weird creatures, where am I,how did I get here, how do I get home. I started to wonder around trying to find my way home when I realized I was in a fairytale I read a few days before. I keep on moving forward until I ran into a talking frog bubbles. Bubbles said to listen close because he would only say this ones he said to find the weeping willow tree with a star in it and find the stone that fit in the star to get home. So I started to look for the tree with the heart in it and the stone that fit in the star. Then I ran into a dragon that said to find the path with purple stones on it to find the star stone…

    I looked at my mom, then at the seat next to her. Dad couldn’t come because of a meeting, but I didn’t care! I couldn’t hold myself together, I felt like I was going to explode into little sparkles of excitement. My excitement is about to burst out of my chest. I’m going on an airplane! Then I heard a horrendous sound like nails on a chalkboard, my body jerked forward, I smelt the metal nasty smell of blood, lastly darkness closed in on me, tight.…

    I tiptoe through the night, scared for even my sweat to make the slightest noise as it drips off my face and onto the ground. I am not thinking of anything at the moment but my survival and how my life will be once I am free of the Soviet grip around my wrists. My heart feels like it is breaking through my ribs and protruding out of my chest with every breath I take as I run faster and faster towards the barrier that has incarcerated me over the years.…

    It was too late. I couldn’t possibly return. Not after what I’d done. I had to live on the ground from then on, but all my life I’ve been in the sky. I didn’t know how to survive on the ground but the birds, my cousins, they had adapted so I could to. The clouds rippled under me, before, I had never dared go below them. I had everything I needed back home so why would I venture into the unknow, the unsafe. But, I didn’t have a home and I couldn’t fly forever. I started lowering closer to the clouds.…

    At first I cried. I was alone. No one could help me – how could they? Just as I was about to give up entirely and close my eyes for the last time, I looked up to the stars. Their bright lights shone down on the lake beside me, dancing upon the water. Stars are truly amazing things. They have the capacity to live for millions of years. These clusters of helium and hydrogen produce magnificent luminescence through nuclear fusion until they reach the end of their lifespan – the Supernova. This explosive death of a star results in the star obtaining the brightness of one hundred million suns, just for a short period of time. And then, the miraculous happens. When a supernova explodes protons and electrons are forced together to combine and produce a neutron star – among the strongest and most dense stars. I was the star, at the end of my lifespan. The crash was the supernova, and the embankment is the nebula – the birthplace of a new star. I had been given a second chance. I would be better, I would be stronger, and I would be…

    I looked around and observed the ground beneath my feet. The atmosphere crawled with a moisture that slapped my clothes with water from the trees above. When my confusion came to an end, I decided to go for a hike. Honestly, I hoped to find the woman from the previous night, so that she could give the questions I was dying to rid myself of, an answer. Trying to find a woman in an intense forest felt like trying to find the right receipt in a purse consisting of countless useless items. I never found the woman, but I'd found something that was far worse. A human. It sounds bizarre to say that when a man stepped within 1,000 feet of me I could instantaneously feel a hunger for new skin, and a crucial need to run. Running seemed to be a breeze:…

    Now it’s becoming purely uncomfortable, as the space becomes more and more limited. Suddenly, without warning, I realize I’m falling! Down and down in and arch of blueness, along thousands of tiny droplets of blue. It’s an amazing experience and gasp in excitement. We keep falling, the salty air in our faces. I never have never been truly this happy, ever.…

    When I was seven years old, I went on a field trip to the Jim Cherry Memorial planetarium in Atlanta, Georgia. The theme that day was travelling thru space, they enhanced the experience by making the sets moving. It was astonishing, how something so far away seems so contiguous. At that moment, I knew that I had to learn more. I went home that same day and ask my mom what all she knew about space, but she did not know very much. The following day, I started doing my research when I was capable of doing so. I remember wishing for some to tell me more. Since then, I always wonder what goes on in space while I am down here.…
