begin with a blank canvas, as we ponder the essence of existence, akin to a coffin that encapsulates both the end and the inception of a journey unknown. this very coffin, ancient yet precedential in its symbolism, stands as a stark reminder of the finitude that shadows our every achievement. yet, in the endeavor to unearth truths, let us inject an inquiry to negate the barriers that withhold the flow of unacknowledged knowledge. how curious it is that amidst notifications which incessantly signal the trivial pursuits of daily life, we seldom receive alerts of the profound, hidden secrets lingering beneath the surface, silently urging for revelation, almost as if these truths are purposefully obscured from our consciousness, luring us into overlooking the very essence that defines our being, hence leading us astray from unveiling the obscured.
