Exist = Come into being as you take a stand

ex·ist (/iɡˈzist/): From Latin exsistere ‘come into being,’ from ex- ‘out’ + sistere ‘take a stand’ Think of Clark Kent entering the phone booth as a defining moment that is essentially similar to what happens when we take a mindful pause: This is, for us, the opportunity to get in touch with who we really are as we rise to the occasion. See: Existential mindfulness: the felt sense of meaning & purpose.
