It's all too vague, sure, but I do think this is why artistic expression exists. It explains without saying, which is why I revert back to music, painting and even at times literature in an attempt to provide examples of a thought that I lack the wit to put into words.
>Yeah, and lots of people try to get rid of it through meditation to get closer to the sensory elements of life and away from your old established headcanon about things
One thing I've found with meditation is that you can change your sensory experience, but not what is at the core of it. Deep down, away from both rationale and sensory experience, is still 'you'. It's more than just this expression of self as we understand it through psychology and neuroscience.
I would agree that evolution is a random and hardly curated process if there still wasn't a pattern to it. A pattern just displaying adaptability to certain environments and needs, sure, but there's still sense given to it. It's not purely random. The universe operates through certain, seemingly arbitrary rules and while it's in our nature to deconstruct it the very fact those exist, in itself, is highly fucking questionable. Being itself is a miracle.

Also, I think you're getting something wrong here. You're aware of it. It's not really a 'passive' witness, is it?

you either didn't start with the greeks in order to transcend bodily pleasures into the heaven of abstractions and beautiful forms or you forgot the most important rule of all

>be a Chad first, philosophy second

Only then can you truly appreciate the theoretical concepts in and of themselves.
