Our universe began with an explosion of space itself - the Big Bang. Starting from extremely high density and temperature, space expanded, the universe cooled, and the simplest elements formed. Gravity gradually drew matter together to form the first stars and the first galaxies. Eventually, the universe cooled to the point where electrons and protons were able to join together and form stable hydrogen and helium atoms -- the matter that went on to form stars and galaxies. This cooling ended the scattering of the cosmic background radiation, which has remained largely undisturbed ever since. This was something known as 'The starting of Universe'.  


This is the story of a girl named Angel, who has Galaxies in her eyes and the universe in her mind. She dreams of a world in which she is all alone in the beautiful night sky, where she admires the beauty of nature; admiring the northern lights. On seeing the northern lights in the sky, she felt that she has the whole galaxy in her eye and can see the universe, in the blink of an eye, present in her mind.  


While dreaming of the beautiful world, she heard someone calling her, "Angel, Angel! Come here! We bought you the universe!". She was shocked by hearing how can someone buy the universe. She came out of her room, saw her parents standing in front of her with a huge gift box. She asked them why they said that they bought her the universe while they were holding a gift box in their hands? She got a beautiful answer from her parents, "we got you what you always wished for". She was surprised and thought about what was there in the gift box that they mentioned as the whole universe. Her parents asked her to come and take the gift box and open it to clear all her doubts.  


She went near them, took the gift box and was about to open it and suddenly she remembered of the beautiful dream she had of having the galaxies in her eyes, the universe in her mind. She wished if her dream would come true.  

She opened the gift and found a mirror and another gift box in it. She asked her parents why there is a mirror in the box and what they want to represent as a whole universe. Her parents answered that they gifted her a mirror as they see the whole universe in her. And the other gift box had a painting of her representing the whole universe as Angel.  


She never hoped this from her parents. She took the gifts to her room but didn't say a word. Her parents thought she was not happy with the gifts. At night, Angel was looking at the painting and gazing at the stars. Suddenly she saw a change in the sky, stars changed to Northern lights, she saw clusters of stars in the sky. She thought it was a dream and wasn't able to believe it as reality. She kept gazing at the sky and after some time took the mirror in her hand and take a look at it deeply. This deep imagination made her believe that her dream had come true that She really has the galaxies in her eye and the universe in her mind.  


Her mother entered her room and asked what was the reason for the new glow on her face that her mother saw the first time. She replied that "She got galaxies in her eyes and universe in her mind". Her mother was quite surprised this term as she never heard this from anyone. She asked Angel to explain the terms she used. Angel explained that she meant to say she got everything she wished for, galaxies in the eyes mean to have a shine in her eyes, and universe in her mind refers to a lot of problems and solutions in her mind all mixed.  


Her mother smiled and thought how deeply her daughter thinks about the life and gives them different beautiful terms.
