Throughout my life, I have often reflected on how difficult it is to be human. At times, I have even wished not to be one, only to realise that such a thing is impossible. Eventually, I came to a quieter understanding: we are all simply human. Every emotion we experience carries value, and both the good and the bad are essential parts of what shape us.
Whenever you feel like the worst person in the world, remind yourself of a quote I have always found striking:
“It’s not a pleasant thought, but I have this terrible feeling from time to time that we might all just be human.”
Perhaps that is not a condemnation, but a comfort.
