it is a challenge its not meant to be easy, you want to be better at life (wich is the goal in life, gain knowledge, keep evolving,eventually prooduce offspring,pass on our knowledge to the offspring for the offspring to further increase theyre knowledge .) if you realise how life works, there no such thing as free. its always taken back from somewhere else , whatever you receive for free. will be taken back at some point in life.
second- life, nature, and how everything grew to come together in a giant ecosystem and for us to be on the top of the food chain means alot. what if you were a fuckin fish, or a bird or some insect, or even "part of the cosmos,( aka cosmic dust aka same as a corpse)l. bet you would want to be human then.
third- you realize we are not advanced enough to look at things on a cosmic scale, we may be insignificant, but we havent even found life in any part of our solar system as of yet. meaning, just to be part of this little part that actually has life on it means alot.. you get one life(most likely,this goes into religion so i wont go there). why waste it feeling sorry for yourself?
fourth- when it comes your time, you can go without regrets, or atleast knowing you've accomplished something, anyway that how i see it.
why do you keep saying challenge and then pretending its inherently hard? challenges can be hard, easy, fun, boring etc.
i also like how you claim to know the meaning of life and its universally true for everyone...way to force your own opinion on billions of people.
you are free to believe in karma.
giant ecosystem? again you are putting way too much praise into our little gain of sand of a home. if i was an animal without the ability to think or raw materials...i wouldn't want to be a human...because i would be a damn low intelligence animal or just raw materials.
uh we very much are advanced enough to look at things on a cosmic scale. just in the known universe we are already insignificant....and that leaves plenty of universe we still haven't learned about.
if you want to base life being rare on 1 grain of sand on a beach go right ahead. just within our own galaxy there are another like 300 BILLION stars to have possible life filled planets. go further out and you have to contend with the estimated hundreds of billions of other galaxies. once you start to wrap your head around exactly how physically small we are compared to what we know about the universe you will have PLENTY of reason to see life as meaningless.
you get 1 life...that doesn't make it valuable, meaningful, worthwhile. you can't waste life if you have no meaning for being alive. as humans the only real knowledge we have on the meaning life is the same as any other animal on the planet...eat, sleep, have sex, try to be dominant.
we are the most intelligent animal on our planet but our purpose is the same as any other. anything you "accomplish in life" is only meaningful to those it affects...and even they will die and then no one remembers what you've done eventually.
you only die with regrets its only because you are silly enough to think anything we do in life truly matters in the long run.
