How do we as humans grapple with the idea of nonexistence? Maybe it isn’t easy at all. Once being aware of our existence, as the human species is, how do we go to a place in our imagination where we don’t exist. Maybe going there it is even impossible.
It explains beliefs of heaven, nirvana and reincarnation. It explains the desire to procreate. It explains things like books, blogs, movies and photographs. Somehow, we as humans need to go on, be that in our children, accomplishments or pictures.
It is harder to resist something once we've experienced it. Now we have the desire for it. We have tasted something we can’t un-taste. We have all experienced life. No matter how difficult life is, for the most part, we desire to go on and if possible to give that experience to others. What is it about life that makes it so addicting? What is it about life that once having experienced it, it is impossible to imagine never experiencing it again?
