We're surrounded by so much science, so much technology, so much reason and logic, that we can easily forget the overwhelmingly fundamental "fact" that life is really and deeply an utterly mystery.
In fact, the very existence of life is so utterly mysterious -- so totally incomprehensible -- that if you simply reflect on this, you'll never think you really "know" anything ever again. And if you forget this -- if you start to think you've got it all figured out -- just glance at nature. Look at a bird's nest, or a spider's web, or how the clouds form, or how the sun shines...the list is endless.
Life is a mystery -- not a problem to be solved.
