Contemplating existence and presence- living reality, fantasy, agendas, I sit and think about Life, theories, and my personal observations. I studied economics, politics, urban planning, child development, but mostly, culture, and people. It's amazing how we've grown- we as humanity, and, how we have built technology- far as our eyes can see! After reviewing different theories floating around via social networks, and journalistic reads, I conclude we have learned so much, and we are still learning- we are still testing our boundaries!
One topic of interest is our spirituality. I observe conservative values, New Age, and Skepticism. New Age theory baffles me, however! So many people are hopeful on spirituality based on ancient techniques mixed with new theory. For example, belief in the moment of "Now," and No Other Presence! Good anti-anxiety technique, but not really good for reality and logic! Although Believers of certain religions believe in deep meditation, they appear to un-examine the actual "here and now," or, the constant reality we face each day. Some believe Life on Earth is merely an illusion that we can change if we just, "wake up!" Ha! Please direct me to the nearest logical station!
I have read so many different perspectives on the meaning of Life, and if I can just reach a few on this topic, it would be to stay in reality- fix it if it needs fixing, appreciate it if it's easy, and always rest when you need to do so! We are built with a pumping system that regulates our bloodstream, so use it to stay active, relax, and give- for, in our heart, we find life and brotherhood. We are connected through this organ- not only to our humanity, but through other life-forms carrying the same type of organ. Also, we have an unique brain- a mechanism which controls so much, and leases us our superiority! We are superior because not only can we think and feel, but we can calculate, imagine, express, react, contemplate, grow, and execute decision-making efforts. Indeed, we are unique in our Presence, but more so, we are unique in our feelings and expressing the numerous ways we can not only use our brain and heart, but bodies and connection. Yes, perhaps animals can do this too, but they cannot analyze it the way we humans do, and until such time occurs where other species resort to the same measures humans do, we have an obligation to not only act on our superiority, but to use it in a way which renders the survival of our species, and the lessons of our ancestors! We are here to experience and rationalize, and, love and persist... for, what is existence, but merely a Life Experience! One which is so fragile and meaningful that it doesn't matter whether we are wrong, or right, but whether we are free-minded, or captive!
Appreciate your life- your Presence! Namaste.
