The ENDLESS

Chapter- 1

By Sajeed KhanPublished 2 years ago 3 min read

In the dawn of the universe, amidst the vast expanse of cosmic void, there existed nothing but the ethereal dance of space dust. As eons unfolded, a transformative spectacle was set in motion. The seemingly insignificant specks of dust began to coalesce, forging new celestial entities - stars, planets, nebulae, and galaxies. Yet, before this cosmic symphony took shape, in the profound obscurity of a distant cosmic corner, there resided a luminous blue sphere. Despite its diminutive size, this radiant orb illuminated the entire dark recess, a beacon in the profound stillness of space. The passage of countless eons bore witness to its remarkable evolution.

Initially, it grew in size, akin to a moon, then a planet, and eventually, it assumed the grandeur of a magnificent star. After billions upon billions of years, a profound transformation unfurled within the heart of the star, bestowing upon it a newfound existence. In an astonishing realization, it became sentient, endowed with the ability to think and feel. Though its thoughts and emotions were rudimentary at first, it embarked on an eon-spanning journey of cosmic contemplation, observing the universe for countless millennia.

In time, it evolved to possess the nascent consciousness of a child, sensing a mysterious force flowing within its luminous form. Curiosity led it to halt this ethereal flow, plunging itself into darkness. It experimented with its radiant display, alternately blazing with brilliance, then dimming to obscurity, reveling in the interplay of light. With each passing eon, its consciousness deepened, evolving into complex contemplations. It yearned to move its luminous form, yet discovered it was inexplicably tethered to the cosmic stage by invisible bonds, leaving it immobile and alone.

These questions, echoing through the ages, festered within the radiant being, kindling a restless desire for freedom and exploration. Undeterred by its seemingly unbreakable constraints, it relentlessly pursued the mysteries of its existence, interrogating the very essence of its luminous being. It yearned to unravel the enigma of its cosmic solitude, a solitary sentinel in the cosmic void.

As the epochs unfolded, it began to notice subtle changes within its radiant form - the emergence of cracks and an intensified flow of light. Its brilliance grew more radiant, yet the true nature of these transformations remained elusive. Millennia passed, and with a colossal burst, it fragmented into a myriad of shimmering cosmic fragments. In this transformative upheaval, it stood as a silent observer, unable to discern or experience the profound changes that had enveloped it.

Time, an eternal river, carried its essence forward once more, reforming its being into the enigmatic entity known as a black hole. Within this transition, its consciousness entered a profound trance, immersed in the dark void of existential contemplation. As it awakened from its stupor, it found itself engulfed in darkness, the flow of light extinguished. It grappled with a sense of melancholy, mourning the loss of its radiant existence, yet its relentless pursuit of understanding endured.

Countless years slipped away as it continued to strive against its cosmic bindings, yearning to transcend its stagnant state. Finally, a moment of resignation arrived, and it considered ceasing its futile struggles. However, in this moment of surrender, a familiar transformation commenced within its form. Apathy settled in as it recognized the impending eruption, but now, it no longer harbored hope or despair.

As the appointed moment unfolded, its consciousness began to fade, and this time it met the impending transformation with acceptance. The flow of light returned, gentle and reassuring. It dawned on the luminous entity that it was part of an eternal cosmic cycle, a story woven into the fabric of the universe, a journey of consciousness and transformation that would continue for untold eons.
