Neithlí - A door to freedom

My name is Neithlí and I've always admired the way to walk of people. When they're little and they learn to do it, they fall thousand times and rise. That's what I admire about a human.


However they don't realize this, they wish to have wings like me, and want to fly as if they were birds. But if you don't know, flying is not freedom, is balance. ¡Is sad that they can't see it!
We can fly but we don't learn a lot of that, is rather an evolution of walking, is the need to run away and go faster, at least for me, a little bird that have to hide from those who are larger.


I fly to commute, humans use their feet to walk, run, dance and other things. Then... Who is freer? Man despite what has, look for ways to go further, his element is earth but he found the way to fly even without wings. He also found the way to use fire in his favor, for the easier things like cook or frightful things like fight, and they learned to control it when it spread in conflagrations. And besides this they went into the water. First they learned to swim, then they made shipping to cross seas and oceans, and next they create submarines to reach deeper places.


And even after occupying the four elements, they created spaceships and left their planet, they went to the place they call Space or Universe, and which I can't comment because I've never been there.


And now, after all this, I again ask this question: Who is freer? Man has the dream to fly like a bird, I don't have dreams but if I did I would like to be a human.

As I said before, the man although without wings have soul, thought and heart to continue day after day, he has dreams and illusions, and the strength to carry on and perform them, and rise again like he was little and learned to walk.
