Dead Stars (reaction)

-Jonathan E. Guadalupe-

Dead Stars is an amazing story. It revolves around the three characters named Alfredo, Esperanza and Julia that in the end formed a love triangle. Due to this circumstance, the author was able to form a very dramatic and emotionally intense plot. The story tackles about love, marriage, betrayal, agony and greed that give an exciting aura of positive and negative forces which in the end make the literary piece phenomenal. It is hard for Alfredo to choose between the one whom he is engaged for 3 years and the one whom he just met for days and capture his heart. Many people admire the story because of its unpredictable and unique ending. Each of the character soon realizes their mistakes and accepts it. All through the years of Alfredo and Esperanza’s marriage, it has been an agony for Alfredo due to all of his memory of a girl that once touches his heart, Julia. He has been thinking that he fall into the wrong girl just to fulfill traditions and avoid shame. But as destiny allows Alfredo and Julia to meet again, after so many years, He soon realize and accept that Julia is not really meant for him and he is now contented and very grateful that he did not waste the great unconditional love that Esperanza is very much willing to give. The story indeed gave us a lesson that in our life will come so many kinds of people whom we will offer our love. But we should be careful enough not to overlook the one who is really deserving and can offer her much greater love back for her love can light even dead stars and thrust it deep into our hearts.
