Why am I? Share

People contemplate the nothingness of being, the simple existence of breath and blood and skin. They sit and think on what they have for a purpose and what they need as a goal. There is not one person on the planet, smart or dull, brilliant or bumbling, that has not asked themselves, "Why?" What happens after they have posted the critical question? Does an answer appear in bright pink neon, glowing for all the world to see? What says the answer that blows through your head today is any better than another answer you think of three days from now? This is where human experience is vast and varied as a gasoline spill across fresh water. Have you ever watched the liquid as is floats against the calm surface, constantly changing depending on where the sun hits? As it oozes into the crystal clear water before actually penetrating it? Gasoline floats like slime and algea. It sparkles over the water as it balloons across the surface, looking very pretty with its multicolored illusion. In reality it is blocking out the sun. It is the same with the eternal question. "Why?" blocks out the ignorant calrity of bliss. It changes the cool water of innocence into a senseless but beautiful melee. As an example, take the ignorant man who asks this question of himself may delay the inevitable sould searching by finding the answer of "why" in the world around him. he will find out why the biurds fly and why an engine runs. he may study teh intricacies of the food chain, delicate working of interpersonal realtionships. In this process his mind is expanded. He is no longer ignorant, but educated. The mind has been opened to things it never thought possible. There is only so much you can learn about the world around you before you reach for the world within yourself. Whether you go outside to teh inside or inside to teh outside, all thinking creatures capable of extemporaneous thought end up with the same question beginning their journey, "Why?" Or more specifically "Why am I?" What did you find? belief in God? Fate?
