Being Human

It is human to feel. Feelings flash through the soul at a memory, a glance, or without any identifiable reason. Feelings are like a dancer gliding gracefully on the floor – slipping, falling, rising, leaping, passing back and forth from heaven to hell on the floor.

It is human to fail. Failure is self-disappointment, it is discovering weakness, it is a call to rise to a challenge, it is to be a creature among others.

It is human to die. Everyone bleeds, everyone dies, our lives are a journey on a road with a collapsing end and there is no turning back.

It is good to live life by embracing the wonder of every unknown moment, to dance in the rain, laugh into the wind, cherish the warmth of the sun, count the stars, embrace your loved ones, and dream of a world without end.
