Confrontation

I wander far to seek and think, and rarely find the answer I was looking for, but often delve another just as needful of solution. I recall a day I thought that man endured above the whole of Earth in beast or plant. My walk that day did chance upon a hummingbird out sipping blooms of golden yellow honeysuckle. I thought: here are the frailest things that God has given roots or wings, and yet they have endured not knowing love or hate, and feeling no regret if we had never met. I was as frail as they I knew, and not the stronger for a brain, but likely weaker for the pain that I could feel that they could not.
