Excelent, gorgeous photograph to represent chaos...
Imagine it becoming solid and you may start thinking about thinkers, how did they show up on Earth before us in order to leave to us their thinkings.
Excelent subject and commentaires of yours, but you still left on the air the same old questions, despite of quoting those talented from the past.
We do not know what a been is.
We do not know about our origens, nor our purpose on life and not even considered the possiblity for us to find out a way of staying longer, or etternally, when we find the cure for the disease that end killing ourselves, called "oldness"...
We need to know how to prevail on life.
We need to know how to believe, all of us human beens, in the same God, Nature or even origens, before we start learning about fatality of dying.
I wasn't born to die. I assure you that.
