7 A Night for Reflection

After so many years, I thought I would have grown accustomed to loneliness, yet I always find myself thinking about my past life, the people I left behind, the things left undone, the words left unsaid, the experiences left unexperienced.

Now, once again, I find myself in one of those moments, gazing at the starry sky of a time without humans, without the city lights to interfere. It is beautiful.

Since I don't need to sleep, I stay awake at night, appreciating this view, contemplating the future, the adventures that are yet to come. It relaxes my mind and distracts me from this depression that has lingered in recent days.

I noticed a light in space, at first I thought it was normal, but as time passed, it grew closer each night. It seems that the moment is drawing near. Soon, the ancestors of humans would tread upon this Earth once again, and humanity will rise from the bottom of the food chain to the top, dominating all others.

I still don't know where I fit into all of this. Should I try to help them? Should I try to dominate them? Should I protect them? Or should I let destiny take its course? So many unknowns. I feel that the time to make my decisions is approaching. I hope to be ready for what is to come.
