HUMAN ALLOYS
HUMAN ALLOYS
Life is complicated. So are humans. No one is pure. No one is just one thing, all this or all that, just this or just that. That may be because we all walk on earth, while breathing the heaven's air. We are both, of heaven and of earth, human alloys.
Our alloyed status was because of our births, we being but the alloy of one man and one woman, who are themselves but generative alloys.
Few things are ever pure like gold, which is wholly unalloyed and rare, least of all are humans of whatever age, character, continent, or creed.
