Existence is described as the only miracle that is essential and cannot be lived without, highlighting its extraordinary and inexplicable nature. While some view existence as a struggle or neutral experience, the discussion emphasizes a childlike appreciation for the miracle of being alive. The conversation explores how protective habits can inhibit the recognition of existence's miraculous quality, suggesting a need to reclaim this awareness. Participants express varying perspectives on the concept of miracles, with some preferring the term for its positive connotations over the idea of paradox. Ultimately, the dialogue reflects on the profound significance of existence as a shared experience that underpins all other miracles.
