If you go lifting anyways it is. Everyone needs one once in a while to come back stronger than before.

yes, we tell ourselves our lives have meaning, that we matter, the truth is we dont, life has no meaning so saying we can find meaning in life is total bull since there is noone to be found, say you are deluding yourself into thinking life matters, that you have a purpose, say helping people makes your life feel meaningfull, for this to be true people have to be worse of than you; you depend on other peoples suffering to make yourself feel meaningful
having an extensial crisis simply means you are realizing this, that theres no purpose, no greater good, theres only the present moment; the now the only thing there is

This, hedonism is the one true way. Just have a good time and don't impede other people's fun.

ONLY THROUGH TEMPERANCE CAN METAL BE HARDENED, JUST LIKE THIS DICK
So, Anon. Why does life need to have a purpose or meaning? Honestly, why would the lack of it keep you, in any way, from enjoying it or making something good come of it?

Well, being part of the human race, we always try to find use and meaning in even the most archaic of things. The fact that people still study alchemy or alternative medicine is the proof that the human race is stubborn and ambitious, always trying to find truth, even in silly things. I, too, share this stubbornness and ambition. I do not accept that life has no meaning, and I search for it every day. This leads me to struggle with the idea of life having no meaning every once in a while, since it seems to be the easy answer. I hate being complacent in that fact, and I most likely will struggle with this for a long time. Thank you for helping me vent, anon. May the mighty silent wojak bestow good tidings upon you.

What is 'why' but inquiring as to the meaning or purpose of something? Is it not telling that even when we ask the need for meaning, it doubles down on us?
>>39718169
'no'
it's a sign of low test

People crave permanence. It's not meaning that causes a man to panic, it's the impossibility of knowing that no matter what you experience or enjoy, you cannot keep it.
