Birth of the Star, Topaz:
Cut by world master cutter "Mr.Victor Tuzlukov".
He was unlucky from the childhood. At one moment his sled went the wrong way, at another the lamp fell down on him at school. Once after one more odd accident at his work he sat thinking. Why was the Life itself? The more he thought about it, the clearer the answer became.
He would never be able to say who did he talk to. But the answer brought him the whole range of feeling: embarrassment, astonishment, hope, joy and, besides that, - clarity, determination, confidence. Now he realized his aim and understood that he went the right way and wouldn’t lose it, while those simple words are bright in his consciousness.
Wise people said: God created man in his own image. It means – you have everything within yourself, the whole Cosmos. In the beginning you should realize it at the first of three steps: to Know – to Be Able – to Be. This birth of Star, awakening of the whole world inside, happens in different ways. Someone has to get hardened in ordeals; the other – save somebody’s life; the other – undergo throes of creation; and for another man it’s enough to make a right choice once. There is one common thing: assumption, and then confidence, that a man’s life is not limited by physiology. And when a man, first timidly, almost unconsciously, opens a cover of this Mystery, he hears the first call of Infinity inside. Even not the call – just slight distant echo – and he gets so astonished, that he doesn’t want to return in the kennel of the usual perception of the world. There is a long way before you – though renunciation, sacrifice, love to the uniting with the whole existence. But the key stage is over. The star is born, and now it’s important to keep its flame from the attacks of Chaos.
