Essential

 What are the essential traits that each human posseses? I can only speculate initially that each of us has a soul, that divine spark within us, and that streams of light and dark, good and evil, love and hate all flow through our souls, for we are conflicted, complex creatures, and figuring out how to make this all work for us so that we can lead useful, good and meaningful lives is a serious challenge of immense consequence for the world, and for us personally in the afterlife.
