AS MANY FACES

 

 No two human beings match in any way including their features and their minds (this is including identical twins). There are as many faces on earth as as many nationalities, colour, caste, creed, hemispheres, males and females and more than genders, height, the size of their noses to the colour of their eyes or the spread of their ears notwithstanding the stretch of their limbs. How difficult it would have been if we had all looked the same. Nature has made things adapt in such a way that things are made simpler. Look at the minds. Whatever similar the design of the brain holds there are no two likeminded people. The small changes, you could say aberrations, are reflected in their behavioural pattern and the views they carry with them and describe themselves as the self. In spite of all there is still an order. There is a language that unites; there is a thinking that keeps people together. There is a society that is comprehensible. There is a set of laws that keeps the world going.

 Similarly if we look in the skies no two objects are alike. They have widely different features and their situational/positional or the ways they move in patterns do not match in any way. The Venus and Earth may have similar dimensions to the extent that they may be called sisters but then the similarity ends there. They have vastly different features and widely different characteristics. Whereas one bears humanity the other is hell where there are no chances that life could thrive. There are billions of stars in the galaxy alone(2.5 in the Milky Way) but no two stars match in their size, luminosity and have colours according to their age. There are characters like quasars and white dwarfs and pulsars so different from other heavenly bodies.

  In spite of all the differences the galactic patterns and the cosmic objects have an order in the way the planets move around the stars in the way the stars move in their galaxies. It is not that they are made to clash together and end themselves up. The order is set in motion so that all survive in spite of the fact that we have an expanding cosmos.
