I will never understand the urge to hold ourselves away from humanity.
Humans are teeming with life and vitality and the urge to change the world, or at least themselves. And when you present yourself to them, open-handed and filled with the potential to make that change --
they love you
and you are in love with them.
But I am half-human, made a god by will. And I have never, will never, forget this.
Nor the circumstances that made me thus.
