13800000000 years ago, you survived a gigantic explosion; too many zeros, right?!
500000000 years ago, you were a worm; Darwin said so, don't shoot the messenger
100000 years ago, you walked the walk and talked the talk; I'm here baby :)
10000 years ago, you grew plants, rode horses and built civilizations; the dream of a city began
7000 years ago, you were in a garden, you walked with Him; or did you?
In the last 4000 years, you survived at least one plague, famine, exile; or worse
In the last 2000 years, your longing for humanity climaxed; that's how I see it
In the last 100 years, you survived two world wars, a holocaust, a genocide, a massacre, a revolution or a nuclear bomb; WOW
In the last 40 years, you're father got your mother into bed; you're old enough to know the truth now ;)
In the last 30 years, you've lived, loved, lost and learned; watch out C.S.Lewis, I have my four Ls as well :P
Believe it or not, you were forged in the heart of a star billions of light years away; yet you're scared of aliens
Believe it or not, you're on a journey from epochs long gone to eons still to come; yet you still measure your age in days and years
Believe it or not, you descend from a lineage of winners who tamed nature, beat odds, won girls (or guys :)) and conquered fear; yet you still doubt your every step
Believe it or not, you belong to a tribe; yet you value solitude over solidarity
Believe it or not, you are life's longing to existence; yet you underestimate your worth
Maybe, there's no inherent meaning to life; but you can give it one of your own
Maybe, life is unfair; but she owes you nothing to start with
Maybe, you're not destined to greatness; but neither was most of the race, yet they managed to get you here
Maybe, you're weak; but the mighty dinosaurs are long gone while your kind rules the rock
Maybe, you're tiny; but history still needs you to run its course
I long for a walk on the moon, Mars and beyond; but my stolen car won't get me there
I long for a transfigured world; no need for a new one, this one will do
I long for a pilgrimage far away; to a city beyond Jerusalem, Rome, Varanasi or Makah
I long for a banquet where all are invited; but only healthy food is served :D
I long to be human again
