With the sole objective of providing a brief but simple "synthesis" on the dilemma of Existenz (Existence) with purely "scattered" notes, as the title suggests, this article, in essay form, seeks to offer a succinct way of "seeing," "perceiving," and "analyzing" our existence, especially our human existence. The central hypothesis, therefore, is why existence "exists." Thus, the guiding principle of the article is, in "scattered," or rather, "dispersed" philosophical-existential notes, to weave a mode-existential framework for our own existence, drawing on philosophical contributions from some masters of philosophy. The meager conclusion we reach is that the fabric that envelops existence proves to be "woven" with the very threads of the gentle splendor of ordinary life. In short, what will be analyzed here is yet another way of "having" existence as a living and ordinary form in relation to the world and to ourselves, when the only possibility of our entire life as beings is inevitably "to exist."
