The Preponderance of Being!

Life and how we live it is most important when the realization of mortality is recognized. Isn’t that ironic? Therefore, just being is not enough. We travel through life with blinders on. Our nature is not wired to face what happens next! Most feel that if they get a terminal diagnosis their minds would eventually agree with said diagnosis and promulgate that disease. In other words, it’s better not to know! Or is it?  Case in point, myself, for example. For a person of color in their sixties who’s  never had to take any form of medication besides aspirin, to be diagnosed with cancer?  Wow! How’s that for a reality check? I am someone who believed it’s better not to know!  Oh well, that’s changed! My very existence depends upon my non belief of the deadly nature of cancer. Also in my belief in God. The word being means 1.existence and 2.the nature and essence of a person. Existence is self explanatory. But what about the nature and essence of someone? A little obscure, don’t you think? How do you define these terms? The preponderance of being gives credence to the meaning of life. Hamlet’s soliloquy of to be or not to be suggests a choice.To be or not! To me, not means oblivion. Everyone wants to be. That is if you’re not contemplating suicide! Living and loving life is paramount to happiness. With everything going on in the world today, tomorrow is no longer guaranteed. Having faith is also paramount. Everyone is different on this diverse planet. God looks after both the faithful and the faithless! Peace and blessings!
