Today I am reminded of my humanity.
That I own nothing, but have everything.
That I have everything but can’t touch it (yet)
That I can feel everything but have no elation in it.
Today I am reminded of my humanity.
That at best, I can only do my best
That at worst, I can only do my worst
And that I will always be a reminder of myself.
Today I am reminded of my own humanity
That not everything is as it seems
That not all things come to an end
That once you take a breath, you must take another.
Today I am reminded of my humanity.
That love is neither a fancy or a feeling but a decision
That to give is not an action but more obedience
That disappointment is merely the parchment for something new to be written on.
Today I am reminded of my humanity.
That humanity is not hopelessness but hope, less, us.
That I am not everything, but something
That I am something to someone.
Today I am part of humanity
A piece not lost in a puzzle but part of one
A picture of unspoken words
A vessel with a purpose less some facilities.
So I take hope in who I am and what is
I take hope in who He is and who I am not
And I take joy in who I am not and what I am yet to become
Because I am humanity. And human am I to not be perfect, but perfectly ready to just be.
To be me.
Love An. 2012
