A Life's Essence: Observations and Impressions Russell Mauer

A LIFE'S ESSENCE (qualities which make a life what it is) Life's story-an integrated collection of experiences noted, recorded and assimilated by an extensive but limited set of neurons. DNA determines our individual network of these fibers-programming is essentially up to chance. No wonder life is such a gamble-the reservoir of experience is infinite, the exposure relatively random, the integration, questionable. From the micro to the macro cosmos, our adventure is singularly unique. Transcribed individually, it makes for interesting discovery, entertainment, research, enjoyment for God or the Gods - more importantly, for Us. The perpetuity of life presumed limited is variably everlasting in memory, fable, artifact, history, imagination, antiquity. As the embodiment of our souls it is up to us as individuals to experience, record, recite, read, discover, endure appreciate our existence.
