Dear fellow humans,

Indeed at one time or another we tend to ask something to the effect of 'Why are we here?' Most turn to some religion, others free themselves from this life early, still others remain lost. Being conscious with the ability to choose and question, poses an interesting issue: We can choose to question. With how much the human mind can be curious, or how intensely we want to know the answer, it can devastate our emotions or mental ability. Often as subconscious tension that can grow over time. It grows because when we want to know something and don't have the answer, our brain goes into 'seek information mode' and looks for any association to connect the dots. (It's kinda why we come up with answers later when we stop thinking about it) Eventually when the question is asked more frequently, an emotional connection can become tied in. More and more the question is asked and no answer is found, more this question plagues the mind. When it gets to the point it's all you can think about....let it go. Then create. Art is excellent, anything that has to do with animals and plants, or helping other people, creative writing. Anything that gives back what you put in. An answer will be found at some point.

I thought at one point that it would have to be my life's purpose to answer the question: WHY? I was in tears for an hour when I came to this conclusion. This monumental task had stood before me and I had no gear, no hint. I struggled and struggled with it, so many implications of what 'WHY?' really meant. I found the answer one day, and I cried for an hour in joy, because the answer was right in front of me in plain view. I felt like an idiot...lol. We must each find our own answers, but they are there. I hope this helps.

Love
JD
