We know very little about truth and reality. We know we are alive and we know we will eventually die. But, no one knows what life is. No one knows what death is. We know we are conscious but we don’t know what consciousness is. Is life itself consciousness or is consciousness independent of life and present in or around living things? No one can answer these questions, not a soul. Life is often said to be a gift and a privilege but is that so? Clearly it is not a choice. It may be a wonderful thing but as far as we can tell no one or anything ever volunteered to be alive.
