We Still Haven't Figured This Out Yet!
"We still haven't figured this out yet," you claim. You act surprised. I'm not sure why. You may be impatient for another's theories to satisfy your incompetencies or eager to transition to the next, perhaps more significant, goal. However, there is no goal, no fun, no purpose to a life that is lived without examination and missing the challenges that entertain open-ended figuring.
Humans innately possess a desire for knowledge. Siddhartha identifies such in his journeying, but it is also made overt by young, formulating minds. For example, toddlers explore in preschool how other humans interact to body language, words, and play. Adults likewise experience frustration and miscommunication in human interaction, which demonstrates that there is still uncertainty about human interaction; man is eternally trying to figure out its world. Still, 250,000 years following the our species's first figuring, humans may not realize that knowledge is ephemeral; it is shaped by notions accepted at the time of the conclusion. This idea can be exampled simply in the different stories of workers in the same factory. Notions shaped by factory position or the heartiness of breakfast can impact a worker's interpretation of the work day; nonetheless, each interpretation is equally relevant and pertinent to figuring as the others. Without the experience of each worker, one is unable to have figured the genuine happening. Even a simple math problem, such as five plus five, can be proven incorrect in the future or, more likely, fuel further figuring in order to obtain (try to obtain) pure understanding. Why is the number a "five"? Are these two values truly the same? What is their standard? While a thirst for knowledge inspires humans to attack some such questions, laziness can also shift the mind so quickly that it ignores questions about math problems and never fully settles into a place of figuring.
Many figure about the wonder of life. Religion, science, and philosophy all develop intermingling shadows and caves concerning the existence of breath, movement, and form; therefore, life is the epitome of the ambiguous. Life is also affected by a multitude of uncontrollable surroundings and includes countless perspectives in its full analysis. Anna Graceman sings "Why are you taking so long baby - to figure out your life?" I admire Graceman if the implications of her lyrics can be literally inferred: Graceman has figured out her life. She also has high standards for her relationship, because I do not know a single person who could be her partner, a person who is unfalteringly knowledgable about the wiggling path of their life.
We still haven't figured this out, yet, I do believe, you can figure you out. For a fleeting, transient moment. Until another shares their thirst, their experience, and their life with you. Good luck.

I agree that you are the only person who can truly figure you out! So many people today rely on the teachings and doctrines of others and fail to think for themselves and create new beliefs.
