Are we human?…

This is going to be the first post written in english in my blog. Why? I don’t know it yet, but I guess it will be at least in line with the ‘guide lines’ our teacher gave us when this course began: ‘Do whatever you like but always in the full respect of others and with the goal of fostering cooperation’… so this isn’t wholly out of the contest =)

Are we human? -Of course!- someone is probably thinking. Not his bad!! It’s my fault for not having specified the area of interest of such a vast ‘tag’…Are we human enough? Are we human too much?… to me it’s a great deal to go with. Are we able to understand our behaviour enough to support everything we do, even if what we are doing is not following any of the principles which were guiding us, up until now? Even if the thing we are trying to do is change! Here it is the other face of the medal. Here you are the troubling part of the job, the part in which you dirt your mind in spite of your hands. Are we human enough to recognise that our actions might not be always right, even if are those actions that allows us to live according to the ideas of ‘freedom’ and ‘happiness’ that rule over us? Do we have the guts to put ‘our lives on the line’ risking our happiness for what could be called HONESTY? Are we human enough, when we are put in front of an error of ours, to recognise it?

On the other hand, aren’t we TOO MUCH human sometimes? Don’t we try too frequently to let loose the lighthearted part of us, while concealing other ones that could not be liked by those people nearer us? How much human should we be in order to live at the same time peacefully with ourselves and with others? Will people like me, because it would be pointless denying any relation to myself, ever be able to reconcile their whole being in one and only figure comprehensive of the good aspects as well as the bad ones?

Will the likes of me ever be able to find a way to live their ‘too human’ part along with the ‘is-this-human-enough?’ part? Will it ever be a balance between what is asked and what is given? But, more importantly, is this balance really essential? Isn’t it even dangerous for us?

a cluster of questions that is being put in front of those brave enough to dare to adventure in such an unenticing place!!! =) nighty-night!
