Quiroga - 143

HUMAN EXPERIENCE OF BEING

Dreams and our ability to dream make us great, while our laziness and fear of not succeeding make us small, there is nothing in the practical experience of our humanity that matches our grandiloquence, because even if we stick to wonderful narratives about how reality should be, since we have wonderful visions about it, in practice we are less than we say, and even when we carry out great works with apparent heroism, we leave behind us a trail of problematic and pernicious side effects.

The human experience of being is enormously complex, there is no way to summarize it in a narrative nor would it be impartial on our part to condemn ourselves to being an eternal promoter of problems and calamities, because, after all, what authority do we have to condemn ourselves unless the one granted by our ignorance of how we function, since even if we oppose nature and this seems abominable to us, we are who we are because nature itself creatively expresses itself through our presence, reinventing itself.

We are an experiment of nature itself, which opposes itself in search of no longer being a blind force, but a self-conscious force choosing its own destiny, no matter what the cost.
