How blessed it is to be a Human Being,
To be granted the powers of Reason.
To be bestowed upon this Earth.
To see, to listen, to learn
And above all, to be able to comprehend a (albeit small) part of this ever reaching, Infinite Cosmos.
To find Beauty in Science, and Science in Beauty.
To love, and be loved,
And not be bound by loving.
Or, if bound, then
To desire, only such a binding.
To be able to Think, and Reason out the Truth for ourselves, and not
Indulge in idolizing, sycophantic worship
Of old books, and bygone people.
To have our bodies as our only temples, and
Our minds, as only objects worth of worship.
To know that our Dignity has not yet collapsed under the dark weight,
Of ugly cynicism.
And to know, that You and I can be One.
You, towards whom, I realize,
I have strived
In all my hours of worthy work.
You, whom I’ve tried to See,
But blinded by mundane, earthly bonds
Have seen but impenetrable mist.
Let us be one,
So that I may finally see the Truth, and lose
Myself in Your bliss.
That is all I ask.
