Co-existing with the dead

Standing beneath the clear night sky takes me to a different realm of reality. When I see the stars twinkling in all sizes, and sometimes with different aura as well, it is difficult to come to terms that many of them actually not existing. If we go by the theory of astro-physics, the twinkling lights, well most, seen today are generated millions of light years ago and reaching earth today. Effectively then, we are surviving with some which are non-existent today. But, we still are with them that defy our mental logic and yet true. Very similar, around us, we are all living with many bodies, working perfectly, which are completely dead. They are all humans of different kinds and we should constantly discount this fact to live sanely. That said the only thing we can take from them are some flashes of brilliance, which we need to imbibe, as everyone possess something or the other, that may not let them sparkle, but at least twinkle. For rest, I can look up in the sky, when it is clear and twinkling, anyway.
