The Stars When children wish upon stars, I find it very sad. Especially since all the stars in the sky are dead and that shooting stars may never return to the heavens...

Space When I was younger, I would gaze up at the stars and dream about soaring among them. But with increase of our technology and the wisdom of an old man, I realise that when space travel is possible for everybody, it won't be special anymore.

The Hitch Hiker I was driving down a lonely, dark country road, listening to the radio, when the song I was listening to was interrupted by a message. It said that a psychopath had escaped from a nearby asylum and was dangerous. He usually leaves his victims just to die from their wounds and has a scar across his right eye. I laughed to myself, believing it to be a hoax of some sort, I mean what were the chances of me being in the perfect setting of a horror movie? But then I saw something up ahead: a body. I turned off the engine of my car and took my handgun with me, for safety precautions. I saw that this man had stab wounds all over him. "Help me," he said "I was attacked by that psychopath guy!" Without thinking I grabbed him, and dragged him to my car. I strapped him in, turned on my engine and drove quickly. I noticed however that I was low on fuel. I stopped at a nearby station and went inside to pay for the fuel. At the counter, I asked the guy if he could call an ambulance to help my friend. The man looked at him and instantly called 911. However, only 3 police cars arrived and they grabbed the man from the car and through to the ground at gunpoint. One the police men came and told me I was very lucky. "Why?" I asked. And then I saw why: across his right eye was a scar...

Death Many will cower at his mercy, The most courageous The most wisest The the most powerful But only few will look at him and smile, As they don't see death as a threat, but as an adventure...

A Sudden Thought As I think of the many wonders and phenomena of space, I realise that we are on but a speck of sand in an endless sea of darkness, unable to escape...
