"I'm Only Human"



“I am only human” is the phrase used by super athletes when they have a bad performance in whatever their athletic endeaver is.  Have you used the phrase?  

I have always wanted to ask, “So you were not a human when you achieved all of those other marvelous feats?  What were you?" 

Our use of words, phrases, and cliches to describe our behaviors betray some of our basic thoughts about who we are.  We need to be careful and thoughtful prior to shouting something that under some scrutiny may sound a little foolish.

What do you think?
