As youth is wasted on the young.

How many of us take the time to understand and appreciate life?

Beware the barrenness of a busy life.

Socrates

We humans are always asking question but when it come to life. Today more than ever, life has been taken for granted. I mean the wonder and mystery of it all.

For thousands of years, this has been a fundamental question. What is life, why are you here, what’s your purpose? These questions have been the subject of great minds.

Does everyone or anyone think they have the answer?

Why are we looking for an answer?

In your own life, are you looking for answers and meaning in life, and why?

Questioning to find understanding is an inherited trait of humans. From our first experiences, we’re asking why. These questions and the understanding they brought are responsible for the advancement of our social and technological advancements.

So now we have advanced to understand much of our physical world, but we know there’s more. There’s the mysterious side. Is there an answer to this?

If there is, what will it mean, and how will it affect you?
