  The Six Keys


The keys to being human are:

The first key is to open the door to our heart, to let us live and give love to other too
The second key is to open the door to our brain, which opens the mind, which helps us to think and to understanding too
The third key opens the door to our lungs, to help us to live and to breath
The fourth key is to open a door to our eyes, which let us see the world's wonderful things
The fifth key is to open the door to our ears which let us hear the world's wonderful things: the songs of the birds, the barking of the dog, the patter of the rain on the window, the trees whispering into the wind, and more.

But sometimes people are born "disabled", unable to care for and love what they are and what they are lucky to have - to touch, taste, smell, see and hear

The sixth key is to open the door, to share the wisdom and wonder of the world with all.
