Orion

Stars at night are always changing and always rotating and always moving and this crazy little planet that we've named Earth is a cosmic speck of dust that somehow is perfect for sustaining our lives. And what's even crazier is that on that speck, all of us are more than just survivors— we found beauty and passion and love, in a lot of different ways. And then we noticed those stars millions of lightyears away and decided to find art in those, too. And in our little corner of this great big universe, people are connecting the dots and creating their own constellations over cups of coffee and shared laughter and even a few tears sometimes. So that's what we've done, we made our own sky pictures a lot closer to our hearts and minds. And the three of us, we drew Orion. In all the motion and the exploding supernovas and everything that happens around us, we're the three things that have always stayed and will always stay perfectly aligned and in sync with each other through everything that happens. And it doesn't matter at all what else tries to get between us, cause we're the only three that will always be constant and by each others' sides forever no matter how many other stars explode around us.
