What if all those laws, theorems, and principles that I greedily swallow are built upon a foundation of sand?
Ha ha ha, excellent. I think they may be built on a foundation of sand, because it is not necessarily true that material existed in the universe and came to life. It may be that a nonphysical being is having a dream about this material world. That means possibilities are limitless, just as Dr. Deepak Chopra teaches!
Okay, well you obviously are a great writer, and my only complaint is that the essay can be a little hard to follow... only because of the sophisticated and complex writing style. To improve clarity, try using a key word or phrase in the last sentence of the first paragraph so that a THEME will be clear.
Also, it will be great to replace this with a PARAGRAPH TOPIC SENTENCE that captures the meaning of that 2nd para:
I've realized I take so much of the knowledge I learn for granted.
