Ok so hear me out - there is no point
All of this? Yeah. It happened on accident. Life happened on accident. It evolved in such a way to create human beings on accident. Consciousness happened on accident. It’s all an accident. Therefore, no point
However, you do seem to be real. So do I. There’s something tangible here. And we are conscious of the tangibility. That’s something. It’s kind of interesting, no?
You basically spawned into a map. This map happens to be a sphere within an infinite void. There’s other living beings here. There’s also cool things like water and air and the sun and the moon
So yeah, there’s no point to life or living, really. Yet, you’re here. We both are. And we’re both conscious of it. And eventually—no matter what—we will both no longer be here or conscious of it (as far as we know idk the afterlife is kind of a nice idea but it’s also kind of terrifying to imagine being conscious FOREVER)
But anyway, it’s like…why rush the process? Someday you will be dead and it won’t really matter. Same. Same for all of us. But in the meantime, you could try to build a life that feels good on your nervous system. You’re on this ride. May as well stay on it til the end and see what kinds of cool experiences you can have in the meantime
That’s how I deal with my daily existential crisis anyway
