How are we justifying our existence today? I am justifying my existence by being aware of it. By being aware of existing. By seeing what I look at and listening to what I am hearing, and paying attention to what’s what, and knowing what is called for and doing what I can do about it with the skill set and tools I have to offer. By, asking, seeking, knocking, probing, poking, exploring, venturing into places and areas that catch my eye, call my name, and getting to the bottom of everything that arouses my curiosity. I have never known anyone busier existing than I am. I call that justifying my existence by existing to the max and wondering about everything I can find to wonder about. And you?
