We speak with pride. We boast. We argue. We talk as if we will live forever. We kill our fellow human beings As long as there is breath in our lungs, we feel powerful. Untouchable. Permanent. But we forget something so certain, so humbling — one day that breath will quietly slip away. And this body we glorify, defend, and decorate will return to dust… consumed by time, by earth, by decay. All the noise. All the ego. All the pride. Silenced. Life is fragile. Breath is borrowed. Perhaps it is time for us to pause… to reflect… to live with humility, kindness, and purpose — before the silence comes. Human beings truly need to think again.
