Reaction of the short entitled "Dead Stars"

 It is entitled as Dead Stars because when stars are die, their glow diminishes then eventually vanishes like the feelings of Alfredo when he touches the hand of Julia when they see each other after a year, he realizes that the feelings that he had to her was gone. I believe that everything happens for a reason.  The story doesn’t only focus on the idea of love, but also, it exhibits how one conquers himself by understanding his true feelings. There was Esperanza who got victimized because Alfredo’s relationship with her must have ended. There was Julia who became the convenient excuse for the idea of infatuation. And there was Alfredo who was fooling himself into thinking that he was in love with a person, only to discover he wasn’t even in love at all.  I think Alfredo is failed to find satisfaction or happiness in his relationship with Esperanza, but he may want to simply avoid the problems and seek another means of comfort rather than confront the discourse and it is the core reason why he have a smitten with Julia. Infatuation or smitten is the state of being carried away by an unreasoned passion or love. Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out whom you are or who you want to become.  You never know who these people may be, but when you lock eyes with them, you know that at that very moment they will affect your life in some profound way. And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized it by your heart. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck, Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without the small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight flat road to nowhere.  It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.
