"なぜ無ではなく何かがあるのか"
— Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz
Simplified Meaning:
This quote asks us to think about why anything exists at all instead of just having empty space. Imagine you walk into a room and see it filled with furniture, decorations, and people. You might wonder why those specific things are there and not just an empty room. It’s much the same with the universe: why do planets, stars, and life exist? People have asked this question for centuries, trying to understand the reason behind the existence of everything. Some look to science and theories about the Big Bang, while others turn to religious or philosophical ideas. Reflecting on this question helps us appreciate the mystery and wonder of our world. By considering why things are here, we can feel more connected to the universe and find meaning in our own existence.
