How shall I live?
When you know what you are - what we are, what all are - this isn't even a question.
It is plain.
And it is done.
When you think you know what you are - (a you made of thoughts) - this is one of the great ponderables.
The answers are as convoluted as the thinking required to get there, the thinking required to create that self.
And the doing is effortful and inconsistent.
If I made a list of the hows we all could probably agree on,
it would be to-dos for the thinkers,
it would be a description of the knowers.
The fun part is, we are all both knowers and thinkers, changing state in the blink of an eye.
Insight by insight, though, the balance shifts toward knowing.
