Mungi sees a wondrous sight, Mother Nature descending to save a beached whale who then exuberantly backflips in a glorious act of celebration, in the comic Important. Although unintentional it could be likened to a resurrection, perhaps like Lazarus, or at the very least a miraculous healing. Mungi may not find any meaning in life, but certainly finds enjoyment and wonder. For Mungi the saving of the whale is profound and spiritual. Perhaps there is meaning to life, perhaps all is not cynical or hopeless. Looking up to Mother Nature in almost a deifying way Mungi seeks meaning and asks ‘why is life so important’? Mother Nature, the personification of life, must have shocked Mungi with her response, ‘it’s not’. What else is there to say! It is like a hero failing, an idol blaspheming, or a god turning out to be human. It is like all hope has been crushed by Sisyphus’ tumbling boulder, smashed into oblivion. About life though, left unsaid, is while it is not important, it is all we got. – Zachary
