Most of the fragments of Heraclitus are insightful, but I must say that three of them are my favorite. Fragment number eight is true from beginning to end. “Divine things for the most part escape recognition because of unbelief,” this is fragment number eight. The fragment can hold for the example of why most people do not believe in God. God and of that he has created was through his divinity. But because this was such a great task and accomplishment, people have a hard time accepting Him. So most either ignore it or go against it, so I see this fragment as being very true even today. Fragment number thirty –two is also among my favorites. Fragment thirty-two, “All that can be seen, heard, experienced-these are what I prefer.” This fragment in particular suggests that life is meant to be lived, so stop treating it as an option and not a priority. We are supposed to experiences a new thing that is what a life that has been lived means. Everything should not be taken for granted, every great opportunity, triumph and adventure should be embarked on and celebrated. I sure hope everyone feels this way.
