It was snowing. This is common in winter. The weather was calm, and large fluffy snowflakes slowly circled in a bizarre dance, slowly approaching the ground. Two snowflakes flying nearby decided to start a conversation. Afraid of losing each other, they held hands, and one of them cheerfully said:

- How good it is to fly, enjoy the flight!

“We don’t fly, we just fall,” the second answered sadly.

“Soon we will meet the earth and turn into a white fluffy blanket!”

- No, we are flying towards death, and on the ground we will simply be trampled.

“We will become streams and rush to the sea.” We will live forever! - said the first one.

“No, we will melt and disappear forever,” the second objected to her.

Finally they got tired of arguing. They unclenched their hands, and each flew towards the fate they had chosen.
