Being Human
Being Human
Lord I do not wish
To hide from you
I’m to lazy, I say
You molded me
From lowly clay
Am I to blame?
Can I help it
If I err?
Only human, I say
Free will is
A handy phrase
Is it really there?
Glory I can’t own
The Fall, as well
Not mine to will, I say
It is God’s grace
If undeserved
Failure is the Devil’s
Conscience perplexed
Helpless yet blamed
Innocent but guilty
Simple minded me
In a quandary, accept
A mystery, I say
You're right, God is just
You're right, God is just there. So whatever confusion daily life presses on you just have faith and accept that in the end things will turn out right.
Un ... faith ...
Faith is good to have.

Sometimes, I wish I weren't a human. Sometimes I wished I were a bird. Nevermind that I have to eat worms every morning! I wouldn't know the difference, anyway. Still, being human is no difference from being a bird.
It really depends on who has you under their thumbs and what kind of person you are. I bet if Tina had a heart of stone or is too selfish, she wouldn't have freed the bird
If the bird didn't know how to make friends, he wouldn't have managed to call in his other fellow birds to help him get out ...
Whatever creature you are, as long as you have a good heart, people will help you out. God is just there to watch what you do to yourself.
God's only purpose is to make you. It's up to you if you want your life to be good or not ... sometimes, I think this is what it's all about. You and no one else.
Make a good life, good people will follow you. Make a bad one, and you're sure to die ... but then, what about those people with good intentions that were tricked by cons? Like Madoff? Weren't they good too? Ah, but they couldn't take the fact that they had nothing, from rich to poor.
The world is so confusing. Humans are so complex and God is just there, watching.
Just thinking ... nice poem. :)
