humanity
…I understand our humanly imperfections and our desire to obtain happiness leads us to our struggle. Even as successful _____ was before, he showed me how no one can be prepared for what the future holds. To be human, perfection in character does not exist. Although we strive towards perfection and happiness, we fail to completely achieve either of these. We are constantly on the pursuit. But this is not a bad thing, it is in our nature to struggle and fail. I learned that struggle provides a place for growth. It brings us to our lowest in order for us to be potentially something better. But I think this is where most of us struggle, realizing that we must make change in order to gain what we desire. Again, we are not perfect. But we can attempt to be and that’s the beauty in humanity. It is struggle that brings out the worst and the best in us. The way we respond to it is what defines us as human beings and individuals. As well, it is what brings us together creating this human connection. Listening to _______ story, I reflected on my own struggles and how they have deeply crafted the person I am today. It is amazing how you can relate your life story to another’s, grasping their emotions and relating it to yours. Struggle makes us feel and live and this is what allows us to emphasize with others. This is what it means to be human. We struggle through our imperfections on our pursuit of happiness. This is what connects us together.
