The Story of Humans

The life of humans is a story of things. There are 'yesterday things' we have done. Things from which we have run; Things that nearly drove us insane; Things that we will never do again; The life of humans is a story of things. There are 'today things' that we are doing. Things that satiate our entire being; Things opinionated, personal points of view; Things limited in scope, not in the local news; Things that we don't advocate for others to do; Things long-held and unshakable; nothing new. Things that are difficult, to which we are addicted; Things that come and go like the morning dew; The life of humans is a story of things. There are 'tomorrow things' that we will do. Things that mirror and most define who we really are. Things that we have prepared for, fought for and dreamed about. Things that we long to do, to accomplish, to leave as a legacy. 102722PS

This is rather nice, Curtis. And, you are correct...life is a collection of things from our past, present, and future.
