Dust and Steel

Life is fragile. A single breath can scatter it like dust, yet it can also endure with extraordinary strength, resilient and unyielding as steel. The way a person chooses to live determines the life they lead: will they be as weightless as dust, or become a pillar of their country, as strong as steel? In this world, life is hard, and the lives of friends and family can be snatched away at any moment. Only the most resilient can survive to the end. And yet, in the end, we all come from dust and return to dust.
