The Stars Story

     I seem to have many differences from the world around me, that only a few people truly understand me. Even they can be confused sometimes by the wonder and oddness of my psychological mind. I feel I have a unique mindset on the rest of the world. I have different ways of looking at things, such as the stars, moon, and sky. There are many legends and explanations about how the stars came about. The Eskimo's believe that on the darkest nights their dead ancestors come out to dance and the stars are the lights around the dance floor. While the Mayans believed that the Milky Way was a road to walk on to the underworld. There are many more but I like my own 'myth' I personally think that God made the sun to bright and it was making the Earth sizzle. So a few brave birds flew up to the heavens and begged God to make the sun smaller, he agreed that it should be smaller, but it wasn't possible he had already made it. One of the birds suggested that he rip the sun, and spread the pieces into the night sky. God enjoyed this idea, but he would need a volunteer to do the task. All the birds wanted to do it. But only two were chosen, the birds flew up and ripped the sun until it was half its original size. They then scattered the shreds across the sky, the largest becoming the Milky Way. As you can see the stars can give us much wonder and confusion. I hope this gives you some insperation or an idea or something.
