How do I know I exist?

That’s an important question. One I haven’t resolved. I collect evidence every day, yet remain unpersuaded.

Evidence in favor:

Erections
Orgasms
Pain
Touch
Connection
Love
Breath
Hunger

Evidence against:

Flaccidity
Numbness
Aloneness (note: distinct from solitude)

The list in favor is longer. But the constancy and destructiveness of the list against – and, in particular, its last item – is overwhelming.
