“I think therefore I am.”

This puts the idea of existence into play. Just existing is already an achievement within itself. It really is up to each individual to decide what they want to use this opportunity as and for, even if they don’t see it that way. Depending on you, your personality and how you utilize it, is up to you as an individual. Obviously there are imposing factors pushed upon you from society and people in general, but it all circles back to you and what you desire. If you don’t desire anything then you don’t, and that’s your life. Nothing wrong with that, unless it isn’t what you enjoy.

There are levels when it comes to existence: unbearable, painfully tolerable, alright, mediocre, good, and great. Some of us are privileged enough to not have to worry about shelter, eating, drinking water, and staying water. That right there is an edge. When you have less to worry about, life becomes more tolerable and enjoyable.

This plays into feelings and emotions. Why have emotions? There is no manual on how feelings and emotions can intertwine with life and reality, it is simply there to experience. But those feelings allow yourself to become more immersed in reality and truly be present. It truly is up to you, how these emotions come to be, and the situations that result of it.
