Why do I go on living like I’m the nucleus of the world?

The feeling that the self is the only one that exists is known as solipsism. We all feel that we are the only ones, and this is a profound irony of our world.

I am typing these words and the birds are chirping outside and the neighbor’s dog is barking and my husband is working outside— all of this seems to be happening in my world, and mine, only. But while you are reading these biggest questions in life, similar things are happening in your world, and yours, only.

I can’t comprehend a world without me at its center. You can’t either. Yet when we go, the world goes on.

We are at the center of our world to maintain equilibrium.
