Identity = Life

Let's start at the beginning.

The Bible says "In the beginning God..."Everything after only exists because of that statement.

But what was before God?  Is there something before "beginning?"

Yes.

IDENTITY.

Without identity there can be no existance.  And identity, the thing one believes itself to be, is the basis for life.

This applies to everything that exists, whether it be alive or dead, organic or inorganic, natural or synthetic.

It doesn't have to be conscious.

A rock is a rock without ever thinking "rock," deciding, affirming or reinforcing.

Same with humans.  Our identity, at it's core, simply is. And our life is an expression of that identity.

Therefore we say IDENTITY = LIFE.
