The Sun is also a Star

“You can’t stop what’s meant to be.”

This idea echoes throughout "The Sun is Also a Star" , a movie that plays with the delicate balance between fate and choice, blending science with the magic of love. The movie follows Natasha, a pragmatic girl who believes in facts and logic, and Daniel, a romantic who believes in destiny. In the span of just one day, their lives intertwine, and they experience the kind of connection that challenges everything Natasha thought she knew about life.

"The theory of multiverse was set in quantum mechanics, it is positive that every version of our past and future exists, just in an alternate universe, this means that for every choice we make, an infinite number of universes exist where we made a different choice, in this way we get to live a multiple life" . It’s fascinating to think that there might be countless versions of us, living different lives, making different decisions. In one universe, Natasha and Daniel may have never crossed paths. In another, they might have stayed together forever. But in the universe we witness, they only have one day. And what they make of that single day is nothing short of extraordinary.

The movie teaches us something profound: Human beings are like butter fly who flutters for a day and think is forever, compared to the life span of the universe, our life begin and end in the same day. Understand it this way, the stars are just balls of gas burning billions of miles away, they are also a reminder of the brief time we share on this planet. Time and distance are the hard and natural enemies, everyone we meet, everyone we love, how we got here, what path we chose and who we chose to remember they are all a part of our story, but we cannot allow the story be written for us because we don't have forever, sometimes all we have is a single day.

We live in the blink of an eye compared to the lifespan of the cosmos, but that doesn’t diminish the beauty of our experiences. Like the sun, the greatest symbol of hope, we shine bright even in our brief existence. And love? Love is the most radiant thing of all. It’s the thing that transcends time and distance, the thing that makes our short lives matter.

In "The Sun is Also a Star", Daniel sees love as inevitable, like gravity pulling two people together. And sometimes, that’s what love is—it defies logic, time, and circumstance. You can’t stop what’s meant to be. But the beauty of the story is that even if love is written in the stars, we still have a choice in how we embrace it, how we live it. Every moment we spend with someone we love becomes a part of our story.

So, what did I learn from this movie? That we don't have forever. Sometimes, all we have is a single day—a fleeting chance to choose love, to take risks, to embrace life, however brief it may be. And whether our story lasts a day or a lifetime, it’s up to us to make it meaningful, to live in a way that matters. Because if it’s meant to be, it will be. But what we do with the time we have—that’s entirely up to us.

P.S, yes the sun is also a star, it's a benevolent star.
You're probably thinking what do I mean... Well, The term "benevolent star" refers to how the Sun's energy supports life, giving it a nurturing role compared to other stars that might be more violent or less hospitable. So, while the Sun is just one of many stars in the universe, it plays a unique and essential role for us!
