Human Being

I was watching Dances With Wolves again the other day.
For those Native Americans, the goal was to become a true human being.
I believe that is the goal.
A human being
living within the Love of God,
taking forth the Love of God,
becoming, learning, seeking God's path and the Jesus path for our lives,
enjoying the passing of time,
both striving and pausing,
loving our family,
our friends,
the stranger,
the enemy.
I don't understand
much of anything.
I just know that I love you
and God
and this crazy and beautiful gift called life.
And I continue to become, along with you,
a true human being.
