Going out on a limb

Here I go.

Existence precedes essence. Individual human beings create the meanings and essence of their own lives.

Flame on.

I could be wrong, but...
1. I'm not much use dead.
2. Other people aren't much use dead.
3. If anyone must die to make an idea work, it's probably not a good enough idea.
4. I am the only person I have the right to kill in order to achieve a greater good. (If you can convince me it's for the good of the species, which it very well might be, I have the right to agree, but that still doesn't give you the right to kill me).

If you believe that something or someone else creates the meaning and essence of your life, please let me know what it is and where I can sign up. I've found this whole essence thing quite difficult to work out for myself.

That is all. Thank you.
