Humane-1

As i begin to write about this individual,humane is what strikes me as the most important characteristic in her.It seems ages ago,that i found myself in a place where I felt alienated for a long time.She was pretty to look at,in a way that goes beyond the normal and conventional definition of the word i use to describe her.When she smiled,you would feel that it radiated out warmth,that she actually meant to,originating from a noble soul,that she was and which I would realize as time meandered along.A year rolled by,i was still not sure whether i fit in,feeling awkward,almost apologetic for being there and ruining a certain sense of bonding,knowing that many had already sowed the seeds of friendship a year back and were now enjoying the reap.
I garnered the courage,it took quite an effort,I admit to talk to her.I was almost apprehensive as to the ways in which I could offend her,seemed quite silly at that time but true.I spoke and she replied with that disarming smile of hers and I felt that I belonged,a relief.Time rolled by and the bond grew,she was frank and kind,concerned about the well being of others,such a contrast from what we experience today and often suffer from the lack of.I vividly remember an instant when she told me that she was selfish,I was smiling,within,I'm no worthy man to judge ,but her actions resonated the strength of her character,truly a noble soul,a modest girl with a gifted intellect.
