Actually... if anything has an 'essence': it absolutely must posses an existence. 'I think, therefore i am'... is no less correct than 'the table is brown, therefore it is.'.
I'm really not much of a fan of Descart.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
