Human.

Goldfinch60



We go through life doing our best,

Overcoming obstacles before us.

We all make mistakes,

Most mistakes are overcome.

We make those mistakes

Because we are human.

Maybe the word human

Is the word,

The word that best explains us,

Explains what we are,

And why we make mistakes.

    A sensitive write Gold. I'm half-human, half-guinea-pig sometimes, as in my pic!

  • Michael Edwards

    Mistakes are part of life - it's how we deal with them that matters, great write.

    • Goldfinch60

      Very true Michael, we should always become stronger through our mistakes.

    • Heartwriter

      We all make them, live with them and hopefully let them go. Excellent write!

        Thank you Heartwriter, much appreciated.

        Ah masterful! So many tell of what we ought to be, how to be better human beings. How can we be better at what we are, we're only human.
        Really liked this piece.

          A.k.a. Hugh, Michael - Mr. Man. And who is Miss Take? What is her first name? And why I am I talking rubbish? No change there then!
