Can you carry the daily burden of being you? Personhood, the fact that you exist and the chance of you being you actually happening, that your parents had you, is a great place to start to answer the question. I read an article that said the probability of you being you is 400 quadrillion to the 150,000 power or the number 10 followed by 2,640,000 zeros. That puts you and me being us into, well let's just say, Pretty Lucky. But that presents one undeniable fact, it not only makes you lucky it makes you special, unbelievably special. That’s what I mean when I ask the question, “What can carry the burden of being you?” What do we daily do, how do we live, that can carry the burden of the reality of just how special we are? We should ask before we start.
