 | Sunrise is sure every morning and daybreak follows even in the darkest of nights. This has been the life for me. Life that is almost lived a routine but what made life never really boring though is what’s in store for me in between. Trying to anticipate what will happen next yet eventually things will just come as a surprise.
Living for almost twenty years now has been quite tough yet I can say beautiful. This is indeed how to be a human. Tough because my life is not always a piece of cake and everyday is a challenge.
Being human is a special creation of God, created unique and so am I. Lucky for us that we are created in God’s own image and likeness, vested with intellect and freewill and superior among other creatures. I believe that I am a child of God. The product of love, my parents both shared. I am special because I am being loved.
Being human is fundamentally good. Each of us possesses good qualities that we can be proud of. No matter what the person we are even people who commit unlawful acts still there lies that goodness within their hearts. I being who I am, I know I have a lot of shortcomings but I am also certain of having that good qualities within myself. I love and value my family more than anything. I am afraid of loosing them. I’m glad to have my real friends and I treasure them a lot. I can be someone whom they can trust and can help them within my reach.
Being human is beautiful. Beautiful not because of our physical attributes, not our pretty faces and great bodies but it is by being a human and having to enjoy such privileges of life. We set our dreams and work hard for the attainment of it with the loving presence of our loved ones who made our life more meaningful.
Being human is imperfect. We are ambivalent by nature and are capable of committing mistakes. I believe I am nothing without my flaws and that having sinned is a part of my everyday life though how I really tried to avoid it still I’m helpless, I couldn’t help myself. Unintentionally, I made to hurt other people’s feelings. I made mistakes.
Being human is capable of loving, of expressing one’s feeling and of being hurt. Loving someone and being loved in return could be one of the best feelings one could ever feel. This could be one’s fulfillment for being human.
Being human is insatiable. We always wanting more than what we have. We are not satisfied and often lament our own imperfections. We wanted to have everything that pleases us; well in fact we cannot have everything.
Being human is transient. We all know that death is beckoning and whether we like it or not, we all don’t have an excuse from it. It is only God who knew when our time is up therefore we should make everyday our best day. I am thankful for having this life that God has given me.
I am who I am and this is what I am because this is what it takes to be a HUMAN. |  |
