Description

There are more people out there than you realize.

The world is full of them.

And each one

Is intricate.

I could travel the whole world round 

And never meet enough of them.

And so I have to content myself with one at a time.

And yet I know that I will never really understand

The width and breadth of humanity.

And yet I think that’s what I’m doing.

And the further I go, the more I see the vastness of it.

And it fills me with wonder to know 

How small we are in comparison to the whole,

And yet how wondrous and complex,

The reality of any human soul.
