Born To Live

Born To Live

I thin human beings are born to live,
not to die
Alina Franandez Revuelta

I think human beings are born to live,
to live in the beauty of true freedom;
to dwell in the splendor of genuine independence;
to abide in the magnificence of actual liberty;
to exist in the resplendence of real autonomy;
to prevail in the pursuit of certain emancipation;
to survive in the quest of valid alternatives:
I think human beings are born to live,

not to die.
Nor submit to the grotesque attraction of slavery;
nor dwell in the distorted image of dependence;
nor reside in the darkness of counterfeit authority;
nor abide in the veneration of false liberty;
nor exist in the dogma of imitation;
nor prevail in the pursuit of spiritual subjugation;
nor survive in the quest of unity without diversity:
not to die.
