Why am I alive? Some may say it is because a sperm met an egg inside of my mother's womb, but there is much more to it than that, and that "much more" is part of the very reason I enjoy being here so much. I suppose I should elaborate.

I exist because some 4 billion years ago in the primordial soup that was Terra's early oceans, a single cell was created, this cell was the beginning of the human species. 600 million years before Terra came into existence a star we now call the Sun came into existence in a wondrous way, forming our solar system, a small speck in a vast sea of trillions mores. 9.71 billion years prior to the forming of the Sun our universe was in a static state, a ball of matter so tiny and compressed one would hardly believe it could create what we know today, but at that point something miraculous happened, in an instant it began to expand and chemicals began reacting with each-other. They created large balls of energy, reaching temperatures so high that they then began to form all of the chemicals that now make up my very being and everything on our planet.

It is because all of that happened that I am able to exist. And, the fact that in order for me to exist, there must be an unbroken string of history, 13.77 billion years long, that connects me, to the first human cell, to the creation of our planet Terra, our Sun, the Milky Way and eventually all the way back to the beginning of the universe, is why I continue to exist. It amazes me, bewilders me and excites me all at the same time every time I think about it and it gives me such an appreciation for everything around me, because I know that that same string connects everything around us to that same point in time 13.77 billion years ago.

There is much more to why I enjoy living so much, the universe is so complex and the more I understand it the easier it becomes to simply be happy with what is rather than what I want everything to be. But foremost, it is that appreciation that gives me the will and the joy to continue on living, for me to end it all here, to say goodbye and say the world is worthless, dull or sad, is like taking the most magnificent gift that could ever be imagined and tossing it in the trash. It is the ultimate fuck you to everything that was, is and ever will be.

I live because I enjoy life and its beauty.
I also want to experience all the things that I haven't experienced.
Like what those idiots always say, ''YOLO!''

Also to the people arguing regarding suicide, some month ago, one batchmate of ours back from Highschool had comitted suicide. I didn't really know him but I knew him through facial recognition.

A close friend of mine told me that people who commits suicide are cowards, that dying is taking the easy way out. He refuses to fight the problem head on or accept the reality.

I thought that it's not always true.

I then began a little research on 'Suicidal Persons', I haven't really gone through the thought of dying even though things go bad, so I was really curious.
But there's always this one really big question all the time 'Why?'

Well I have already been through a lot. I have been in and out of the hospital most of my life (26). I've had about 11 surgery's. Since I got through all that theirs no reason to give up on life yet and some people have been through a lot more then me.

"Memento Mori"

The one thing man strives to do more than anything else in this world is leave his mark of shaping the earth. However, just how long will your mark last until? Famous or historical people are recorded if they've left a mark. It's only natural for us to want to leave this same proof of existence.

However, people like I've mentioned above are those who spend their entire lives aspiring for great things, only to be greeted by an old friend at the end of their lives and realize their grim error.

Indeed, it is due to Memento Mori that I believe the phrase Carpe Diem (Or Carpe Cerevisi :P) should be a form of philosophy that's taught. There's nothing wrong with enjoying the hand you've been dealt. In fact, the fact that you were born a human, who is capable of producing intellectual thoughts and is one of the few (if not only species) who has to deal with complex emotions due to it realizing that it will one day die is an astonishing feat in itself.

You were given the chance to live a unique life as the being that is truly on top of the food chain. You don't have to worry about prey/predator relationships because you have transcended the animal kingdom.

Do not forget that we are but mammals as well though, despite the earlier statement.

In short. Merely by being able to type up and read this post, you have an opportunity that perhaps half of the human civilization doesn't have, and an opportunity to do something that the animal kingdom has no ability to do.

Enjoy your intelligence that was given to you for as long as you can.
That's life.

No being on earth was created to question existence. I take it at face value. Life is a beautiful thing and I don't take it any farther. Just accept it and leave the thinking to the scholars.
