The are three major parts of this essay:

1) We exist as two selves - the inner and the outer selves;

2) The actions of the outer self "justify" the inner self;

3) As we age, we surrender the inner self to the outer self.

Now, in the common MLA format, a page or two.. or more, please consider the question: "WHAT JUSTIFIES MY EXISTENCE?" I find it rather tiresome that most people feel no need to justify their own existence - they take it as a "given."

And religion does not work: to say "God wants me here, and so I have reason to be," begs the question of the existence and nature of God -- do not use this approach. And people even feel entitled. But, such is not the case.

Ethics is the study of how we should behave -- the good and bad/right and wrong. This assignments is an effort to tie up all the elements we have looked at over the past few weeks... kind of an effort in purity.

Do some research, give me some proof:

1) TWO QUOTES FROM BORGES

2) At least two examples from other sources
