The Earth Formation Analogy of Life

You are made of everything you've been through. All your memories, your history and your views defines YOU. What makes you, YOU is everything happening around you. To keep it short, this fragile human body is an empty vessel. As you live, you pick up things that are important to you, create memories and fills this vessel with things that would define you. Everything you've lived through made who you are today.

I love the analogy I told my sister once. As nerdy as it sounds, theoretically, we are no different than our own world. In theory, scientists discussed on the formation of this Earth that happened after a huge collision between Earth and another twin planet. Oh wait, I can't remember if it's actually a twin planet or the Moon. Either way, in order for Earth to be this big, beautiful blue marble of a planet, it went through such a horrendous and ugly process. The explosion, the impact the Earth had to go through was unimaginable. Well, even through it all, the outcome is a beautiful, livable planet.

Some would question me, 'so it's alright that I've to go through so much shit in life? Your excuse is that because it's going to make me stronger?'. Honestly, no. Nobody deserves the hardships they get in life. It really sucks. I won't say 'It's okay. It'll only make you stronger.' The inevitable reality for us human is that, shit happens. All the time. It just does. Trouble comes for everyone in all forms and ways. It is not okay that it happens to you but it just does. True power to your own strength is when you admit that trouble will come, come what may, whatever it is, you set your mind to accept what's coming and you plan your course of action and execute your plan of attack on life's problem.

Cliche, but like the Earth formation analogy, Earth did not, went to the twin planet and said, 'Yo, listen. I don't wanna collide with you cause it freaking hurts. Can you stop coming at me, bro?' it couldn't. It didn't. Earth accepted its incoming collision and braced for impact. The outcome is, the world we live in now. Perhaps. It's only a theory.

Humans, are so fragile. But the beauty of being a human is that we're capable of learning. From our faults, from our memories and our experiences. So, what has hurt us, what came into our ways and life, it's our nature to learn from it. Your bruises, your scars served you as a reminder. A lesson learnt. It's okay to be scarred. It's totally fine. Because that's the course of nature happening to you as you breathe. And it is only natural for your wounds to heal. Who you blossomed after you picked yourself up from all the hurt you've endured is completely up to you. But I hope you live through it and become Earth.

It's pretty nice here.
