Nobody

The universe is vast beyond our imagination. We, mere mortals, are nothing more than microscopic planktons living in it. Utterly insignificant. The world does not revolve around one person, nor does it revolve around any particular group of people. We are all nobodies. Many are dying as we speak, others are born. Celebrities are also mere mortals. Insignificant. No one cares whether one lives or dies. It is only when you find that special someone, who matters the most to you, and you to him/ her, that you become significant and important. When that happens, your world revolves around him/ her, and his/ her around you. And the two people evolves into one. Sure, there will be times when each will be engaging in separate activities. But one knows that at the end of the day, someone cares. And there is something to look forward to. One will still be insignificant to the rest of the world. Friendship is but a myth. I'd like to refer to friendship as companionship. Do you not rather spend time with your special someone, than with your "friends" (a.k.a. companions)? Of course, you will still want some time away from that special someone, to be with your companions. Just some. Do you not have "friends" who suddenly do the disappearing act when they get hitched? I do. I don't blame them. Because I am guilty of that myself. And why so? Because I believe I am just as insignificant to them as they are to me. Without my evil twin, I am nobody.
