Existence. Consciousness. Bliss.

BY SILVERTON MCCORD

That is the truth of the situation.

Think about the fact that you don’t remember where you were before you were born.

It felt like nothing.
It wasn’t like anything to be you.

Yet here you are now, able to see, smell, hear, taste, and touch.

You don’t know how you got here, and you don’t even know for sure what ‘here’ is.

Think about the fact that every single living thing is in this exact same situation.

Think about every person that has ever lived on the face of the earth.

Think about every person that has ever died.

Think about every plant, animal, bug, and rock on every mountainside.

Think about all the great and terrible forces of nature moving around at random in this moment.

Think of every story, film, novel, and song ever written.

Think of every atom, molecule, cell, organ, and tissue in your body.

Think of every planet, photon, moon, star, and galaxy.

Think about this present moment occurring across the face of the whole universe at once.

Feel the presence of that experience.

Don’t judge it, don’t overthink it.
Just look at it.
