of human-ness

You’re afraid, very afraid, but you take that first step. You feel like you’re falling at first, but then you soar higher than you ever have. And once you have tasted the freedom that flying gives you, you will never be able to walk without looking up at the sky and yearning to fly again.

You’re human, after all.

“All the variety, all the charm, all the beauty of life is made up of light and shadow.” ― Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina
