When we are really young we feel we are totally unique and special. Even though we are wildly confused and don't know which way to go, we ultimately think we are the center of the universe.

As we get older we yearn to stand out in the flotsam and jetsam of society. We ache for the spotlight to shine upon us, for our day in the sun.

In the end as life has passed us by, we finally realize we are just specks of dust briefly floating against a backdrop of billions of stars.

Description

The challenge was to take the top 3 most emailed photos on yahoo and create a hopefully amusing story about the sequence. I reserve the right to refuse a disturbing picture, this includes any pictures of celine dion.

Please feel free to add alternative captions if you can or comments if you can't.

Ah! Sweet goddess of melancholy I pray before your black altar of nihilism. I feel special, but I know that billions of people feel just as special. As I realize that, I feel as unique a grain of rice in a European food surplus silo.

Nothing I think or do is unique, someone has always been there, done that and bought the t-shirt. Even that last sentense is just a re-hash of someone else's clever prose.

I used to think I could come up with something to say that noone had ever said before, like "Doh! I left the iron in the fridge again!". But someone else probably got there first and beat me in saying such a silly line.

So if this is all just common and pointless, then what is the point? Well if it amuses and entertains me, then I might as well be happy as I wallow in the pool of the mundane.
