Faux Fu

A privilege, an honor, a challenge, a mystery.

Yes. There's that idea of trusting your gut. Just knowing that something is really right, or really wrong. A sneaking suspicion, a sinking feeling, a dazzling revelation. There is a gut/brain connection that sends an undeniable feeling of revealed "truth" that floods your body and brain. Ignore intuition at your own peril.

At the same time, we are always swimming in uncertainty: "a state of limited knowledge where it is impossible to exactly describe the existing state, a future outcome, or more than one possible outcome."

It is a natural element of the Universe. The Sea of Uncertainty. Sure. Yes. The Human Realm is all about limits, limits to knowledge, wisdom, insight. We really don't know what we don't know. We really don't  know what we do know.

We are arbitrary, uncertain, tenuous, temporary, shaky beings in a roiling, boiling soup of experience. We are beings of experiences. Each experience is unique. We are uniquely singular beings experiencing everything. It's a hell of a way to live. A privilege, an honor, a challenge, a mystery.
