The amazing thing is that every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: You are all stardust. You couldn’t be here if stars hadn’t exploded, because the elements - the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, all the things that matter for evolution - weren’t created at the beginning of time. They were created in the nuclear furnaces of stars, and the only way they could get into your body is if those stars were kind enough to explode. So, forget Jesus. The stars died so that you could be here today.

“It’s not a look,” Chuck said. “I’m just wearing my feelings on the outside.”
“Uh huh.” His phone buzzed. “Hang on a second."
He rolled up his sleeve to check his HUD, but the call hadn’t come through there.
Huh. He had to pick up his phone and check the read-out, which listed a phone number: an old school page. “That’s funny…”
“Dad, you’re doing that thing again,” Chuck said.
“What thing?” Jaccob asked.
“That thing where you have to check every single doohickey you carry around.”
“I am not.” Jaccob took his hand out of his coat pocket, where he’d been reaching to check his police scanner or music player (he hadn’t decided which to use first).

Long miles of snow and mountains spun out behind him, and his hooves scattered stardust or snow crystals. He went bounding on and on, right on the spine of the world, thrust out against the night sky
