Ergo, the problem with everything? First cause is a problem in and of itself. What was before the first cause and what generated the first cause. Causality on any level leads to infinite regression. To eliminate infinite regression, everything possible must just 'be'. We simply are 'aware' of a linear progression of probabilities. For all intents and purposes, there is no past, future or even now, only an awareness of a single probability at any moment.
(edit)
If first cause can 'just be', then everything can 'just be'.
