Philosophy?! I think not...

Its come to my attention..that I am nothing...well in essence..what are we, but a breath, a breeze of the wind, waiting, but what if there's no one to notice that gentle breeze flowing by, then what, are we a failure? Are we to deem ourselves as useless and undeserving of the life we've been given? After all, who decided to give us life, this chance to breathe, this chance to feel, this chance to love? If it were in our hands, many would have refused to come into existence, in this life and the next.

Well, I must quote:

"naked I came from my mother's womb and naked I shall depart"

In that case, why bother, why struggle to make a living a name for ourselves, if we are like grass, fading like the flowers of the field, then why strive to find purpose in life...

Ladies and Gentlemen: Who are we? What are we? Speak Sartre, enlighten us, live up to your life purpose and tell us what have you come to understand?

"One always dies too soon- or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are- your life, and nothing else"

Harsh, but neatly put, a line drawn through me? My life? Right now? Heavens no...I'm not ready, I'm not fulfilled, I'm not accomplished. Appear before a mercy seat? Before a throng of heavenly beings? By all means proceed, I shall follow momentarily. What I've come to realize is, we are what we preach and teach? No, more precisely we are what we practice, our life is nothing but a show, the world our stage, what is it to you, a comedy, a romantic craze , a soap opera, a horror, a mystery?

Enlighten me, amuse me, we all wish to do something....different, something amazing, something to change the world, well change begins in us, in our hearts, in our own life. You cannot and will not be expected to change the world if you cannot achieve satisfaction in your own actions. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you have to be fulfilled and happy with everything you are doing in life, that you have to be the next Mother Theresa, (if you can by all means don't let me stop you) but we must be proud of ourselves, know that we ARE.

"We do not know what we want, and yet we are responsible for what we are- that is a fact"

..my dear Sartre you're on a roll..we are responsible for who we are, make it something great, do something amazing, start by learning how to love.

Right, so I mention the word love once and I'm a sap? Well I do not care. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE...it is the Laminin of our life, of a noteworthy existence. Where would the world be without love, I'm not just refering to love of relationships, of your lover and you walking down the beach, embracing each other in the depths of warmth and pleasure, of letters long lost and kisses long forgotten. I am referring to the love of other human beings, related to you in any way shape or form. You've got to understand relations before you can understand what I mean, a glimpse, a hi, a hug, a smile, a nod, a passerby, a friend, a stranger, an enemy, a teacher...these are all relations, whether you want to acknowledge it or not...

We exist, ok..now what? Lets start living...really.
