"Why?" has to be the most fundamental human question of all time. Was there ever a person who, at one time or another, didn't shout out to the cosmos and ask, "WHY?" My personal "Why?" is why do I have to struggle so constantly with my mood? Why do my actions, no matter how ideal, have so little bearing on the way I feel inside and the conditions of my life? Like all those before me, through the unifying thread of humanity, the only answer I get is silence from the "benign indifference of the Universe," leaving me nothing better than to walk the paths of constructed meaning as my opportunities and resources allow.
