Living

I am not a "life long" atheist but have been an atheist for many years now.
I am a self awareness within an environment, my perception of which is limited by my reliance upon my sensory perceptions and on occasions the assistance of technology.
I see no point in attempting to go beyond those perceptions except when something outside of the range of my perceptions can have a perceived consequence upon my well being or perceived physicality.
I assume from my perceptions that I am part of a greater whole but I acknowledge that I may have been deceived in to thinking this.
However since I am unable to prove that deception and since it's reality or unreality have no baring or consequence upon my continued existence I am content for it to remain an hypothesis.

A mere speck of life and conscious for a millisecond in time.

I find no need to ponder the vagaries of life. I consider myself a realist, dealing with the now and near future and not inclined to need answers to why is there air and the details of physics and chemistry that created everything. I am here now and I will no longer be here at some future time. I vote to try and make life better for most, fight for what I believe in by supporting causes and people. I live my life to benefit those close to me and those not. I am not vegan, anti gun control or anti guns. I recycle as much as I can, try to keep my climate footprint small and live a good life within my parameters (I do wear a mask when out and about!).
I am interested in science and history, but not in need of analyzing the why and wherefores. I worship nothing and no one, have no burning desires to accomplish anything before I die, just enjoy a life well lived and interesting in many ways so many others will never experience.
More directly to answer your question, since I have rambled on: I see myself as a grain of sand in the ocean of the universe! LOL

Almost too small to be seen at all, except in a very very close mirror.
