Awesome piece, Jisoo. A kaleidoscope of thoughts and ideas and reflections of what it really means to be human. I guess the takeway for me is that being human means clinging to something that can help us live better. Or just live, for that matter. Religion is but one of such anchors. And storytelling plays a huge role in all this. Human-ness is about telling stories, to ourselves and to others. Stories that form our believes and dictate who we are, at the end of the day. I love how you walk us through your perspective in a personal and descriptive way. This is an essay to return to. Thank you. :)
Thank you for your comment Silvio! Agree that storytelling is a powerful human ability. Power of language is infinite.
