Lest we forget: It is easy to be human, very hard to be humane

Alas, not all things in life are easy; Even man struggles to be human.

Since sorrow follows joy As autumn does the spring Man must transcend the joys Of earth, which sorrows bring.

In the deadly sweep Of every wave, A thousand dangers lie in wait.

Love cannot be seeded into someone. It is a fire that is difficult to kindle but once it takes on, it is equally difficult to extinguish.

The world is no more than the Beloved's face. And the desire of the One to know its own beauty, we exist.

Lest we forget: It is easy to be human, very hard to be humane
