Rigid, the skeleton of habit alone upholds the human frame.

Summary

This quote suggests that habits are necessary to support and maintain the structure of human life. It implies that without habits, life would lack stability and structure, much like a skeleton provides support to the body. Just as a rigid skeleton keeps the body upright, habits lend stability to our daily routines and help us navigate through life more smoothly. It emphasizes the importance of habits in upholding the framework of our existence.

The human spirit is your specifically human dimension and contains abilities other creatures do not have. Every human is spiritual; in fact, spirit is the essence of being human.
