Some fill the well here with God, others with science.
But no one is able to connect the dots down through time such that they are able to arrive at an explanation [encompassed empirically] for the existence of existence.
An explanation that accounts for, among other things, dark matter, dark energy, and all that the human mind cannot yet even fully grasp about the “parts” before the Big Bang. The part, for example, where everything that now exists in a universe vast beyond comprehending came into existence out of nothing at all.

Or just google “mysteries of science”: google.com/search?q=mysteri … ce&ie=&oe=
The stuff that more or less revolves around… “But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don’t know we don’t know.”
And that’s before we get to the part about teleology.
Some however are able to “think” an explanation into existence.
They concoct out of words a world that is wholly understood merely by “analyzing” it into existence. A “theory of everything” nestled “intellectually” in their head.
And the more certain they are of it, the more certain you can be that they will never back down.
And this of course takes us to the mysteries embedded in human psychology itself. Mindful matter in and of itself is something of a miracle.
So, use that in imagining the existence of God.
Besides, as some suggest, what have you got to lose?
