EXISTENCE VS ESSENCE
They are 2 theories about human existence.
1) Man begins by being nothing. (There is no human essence)
This means that man doesn't have a destiny already written. They build they life day by day. And in any minute everything can change as they make a decission.
2) Man starts as something that is going towards a future. (There is a human essence)
This means that we have to accept that man comes alive with a program already done. Man is what he does, what he proyects with his actions.
I really think that man is born with no program. That man do what they want and when they want to, not because it is a determine plan for us. We are free, we are able to make our own decisions and choose what is best for us.
Human essence is only a general aspect, is like saying that everyone should be born to do a good for everybody else. But it doesn't determine exactly what each of us have to do.
