over analyzed view of human life
to be human

life is a endless journey of inexplicable circumstances that transforms us...

we encounter conflicts that can be seen as a wave crashing on the sand time after time and we settle out just as the sand;

we impact others lives in the same way that a splash creates waves that go beyond what is seen;

we know compassion in that which we hold each other together as a piece of thread holds a shirt together;

we show our diverse personalities in order to prove we are different from one another just like a snowflake is its own shape but at the same time looks the same;

we cry just as a sponge that has absorbed so much that it cant take anymore and has to drain just to fill back up;

we are picked up just like a lonely penny is picked up by a small child;

we are left breathless by amazing sights as a a lid is put on a candle to extinguish the fire with-in;

we experience the joy of love as a feather falls softly and vibrant with life from the sky;

...but through this all we still cant begin to feasibly grasp the feeling of that day when our next life begins and the untouchable amount of love that will flow like the rushing waters over Niagara.
