We are thrown into a world awaiting construction and completion by human thought and action, left to fend for ourselves, and the trauma of birth – thrust from the darkness into the light, left to make sense of it all.
We should not expect or demand totalizing relief for fear of neutering our effective, inquiring selves. Humans are philosophizing animals precisely because we are the anxious animal: not a creature of the present, but regretful about the past and fearful of the future.
The inquiry comes to an end when we’re not anxious, but rather sated and blissful.
Blissfully 10!
