    I love life. But nothing, really nothing, absolutely nothing matters. There is no real purpose in life. Only what each individual thinks is true. And nothing is true. There is no right or wrong.

    We live on a planet that happened to be somewhere in a goldilock zone in a solar system on the edge of a galaxy. One galaxy of billions in this universe.

    If our planet disappears tomorrow nobody would notice. All our little human lives, aspirations, careers are nothing.

    We're just bacteria and even smaller than that on a cosmic scale. Average human lives are about 70-80 years while this planet will exist for a few more billion years before the sun swallows it and explodes in a supernova.

    And one day even this universe will just disappear before a possible new one is born in a new cycle.

    Life is beautiful but nothing really matters.

    • matters to whom? life matters to me and that's enough. in any grander scheme or scale, or in any other context i'm not concerned.SteveJobs
    • If there's something that doesn't matter it's downvotes and upvotes.SteveJobs
    • Why do you feel like a trolldocpoz
    • you need to start wanking again if you were the person ranting about the benefits of giving up wanking as it's clearly not working.fadein11
    • if you weren't that person, my apologies.fadein11
    • Most people here are 40 and 50. They've all gone through that nilistic phase.pango

    • oh honey, you didn't offend anyone ... you're just too basic for thatmonospaced
    • It is true. So all that's left is to care and worry and stress and make it matter. Not sure why down votes.shapesalad
    • Sounds like you just need to buy more followers dude.microkorg
    • Why the downvotes?

    • we are insignificant - but when you look up at a sky lit with stars that thought can be a positive.hotroddy
    • life is only beautiful to dogs, cats and humans. everything else survives or dieshotroddy

    • life shits on cats?hotroddy
    • I've always said that the meaning of life is to give your life meaning. Obviously ultimately nothing matters, look how vast the universe is...set
    • ... but of course things 'matter' and have meaning in your own life, if you find the joy and love within it.set
    • no, from a cats perspective, that is.inteliboy
    • I Agree.hotroddy
    • This post went from -8 to +2drgs
    • "I love life" your opening line is all that matters.fadein11
    • As set said...you give your own meaning to life. Optimistic nihilism is ultimately a better way to live than following a premade religion or philosophy.yuekit
    • It's actually a great thing that there is no "big other" judging you...who would really want that given the choice?yuekit

    • There is totally a big other judging you. It's called QBN down votes.pango
    • We are the universe being aware of itself, albeit a small sliver of it. The struggles we experience are the struggles of the universe manifest in different dimetoemaas
    • damn toemass, in with the deep shit :)monospaced
    • what we decide matters matters. 'nothing' is only one option.
      it is true that nothing is there to tell you authoritatively what matters.
