The Mystery of Life


What a mystery it is to be alive.

What a terror, a blessing, a dream, a curiosity it is to wake up each morning and realize we're still in the world.

What a painful joy. What an amusing bewilderment. What a brilliant darkness, an opaque light.

No wonder we keep showing up for it.

Alive. Dead. Conscious. Unconscious. What a mystery it is simply to be.
