He was walking down the street with no goal in a beautiful spring day ,spring always reminded him of love and he doesn’t know why
maybe because of all the love songs –especially Egyptian ones- who talk about flowers given to loved ones and what’s the best season for flowers than spring!
He looked up and he saw this beautiful sparkling star in the sky ,he looked around him ,he was only the only one walking there.
Then he had this crazy idea of jumping as high as he can to reach the star .
He stood still for a moment and decided to forget about reason ,about all the scientific knowledge he has ,about all the things that said he can never ever reach a star .
and he decided to jump.
He climbed an empty chair and left his both arms really high and jumped like a crazy man who fell in love .
Then ,gravity did her job and made him fall as hard as he had jumped .
He was there on the ground laughing and crying at the same time .he didn’t believe how he thought of something that stupid .
He sat on the chair and thought that spring is the best season for love ,and he had to be part of that fact ,he had to love even if he was sure he couldn’t get anything out of it.
He had to feel the euphoria of seeing with your everything the beauty of something –in this case a star - ,of wanting it more than life itself ,of trying so hard to reach it .
And then it ‘s not a big deal if you succeeded in you mission or not it’s never about success it’s about tasting a new flavor of life a flavor that you haven’t tasted before .
He went back home singing some of the classical Egyptian songs that talk and sing about flowers given to loved ones in spring the perfect time for love .
