Tell me something new
I want to read your individual take on anything BUT telling it in a way I've never heard before - not in books, magazines, movies, tv, films, video games, advertising, social media, quotations, cliches, school. Tell me something new. I'm not looking for experimental formats just simple solid writing from your individual POV and vocabulary. It can be fiction, non-fiction, a poem or prose - no rhyming. 250 word limit.

Something new

What's a soulmate?

Definition: a person ideally suited to another as a close friend or romantic partner.

If this is the true definition of soulmates, how are we sure how to tell they're our soulmate? Maybe the feeling of being deeply connected?

How do they become our soulmate?

My theory: The stars.

In our blood ther's a hemoglobin that's only found in dead stars. There's stardust in our veins. This makes our blood turn red once it hits oxygen, before it hits oxygen, it's blue. As we all know, we're made of cells. Cells are made of molecules. Molecules are made of atoms.

What if, when stars die... And our blood is made from their dust... The atoms of their dust become us... And your soulmate's someone who's made of the atoms of the same star. Those atoms would have a connection to each other, connecting us with our soulmates.

But wouldn't those atoms be in more than 2 people? Perhaps so. So what if, you could have more than 1 soulmate. Your best friend since kindergarten may be one, your husband/wife may be another, maybe even your younger brother. Afterall, soulmates aren't always romantically involved.

Or maybe there is another reason. If there is, I am willing to find out and willing to listen to other theories. Maybe there's even a multitude of reasons!
