You were there. We all were there. That moment at the beginning of time. But you did not like the rest of us, too much pressure. So you went screaming off to be by yourself and cool off. It only took you a few billion years.
Eventually you got lonely, so you cosied up to some local friends. But once again the party became more and more raucous, and everyone had to split. There goes another few billion years.
In spite of your past history, you did not learn and proceeded back into the raucous parties again and again. Could not get enough. But your appearance had changed, you gained a lot of weight, and no longer looked like your old slim self. The good part was the new colour scheme, black all over.
The last party was a bit of a trap. Instead of becoming a star, you got trapped going around in circles. Others became the star, but what the heck, becoming a planet was good for another 4 or 5 billion years.
In fact a new experience was happening. It was called life. You were very persnickety, and would only get married to a few other elements. Life was fun, with many marriage partners over the years. The first were just sludge, but you also hung around with a wide group of vegetarian friends.
