I mean, there is no meaning in nature, it was man who invented it, and often it appeared because of a scarcity, for example, the point is in a beautiful woman, because you are unlikely to find another one as beautiful, right?, or can you find a person who will support you and accept you as you are, like your loved ones? The examples are not the best, but I hope you get the idea.
In addition, I will say that about a year ago I watched the film “The Seventh Seal”, and now sometimes I feel in the place of a character named Antonius Block. I dismissed the inevitable by refraining from suicide as a teenager, thinking I could find the meaning of life, but what was to be expected, nothing worked out. But especially now, how shall I put it… in the age of AI, it is impossible to escape the truth, self-deception no longer works, at least for me personally.
Chess Game with Death:
Why is happiness diminished by knowing it’s a chemical reaction? Why doesn’t that apply to depression and sadness?
Because the truth is only one: life is meaningless.
And happiness will trick your brain to think there’s a meaning in something.
Does something have to have meaning to create happiness? My dog farting himself awake has absolutely no meaning, but it would brighten my darkest day!
Good, I’m happy for you my friend.
Are you saying that depression feels more real than happiness, therefore the happiness must be a trick? What if it’s actually the other way around?
Yea that’s kind of logical.
You’re in a world crumbling into pieces, unfairness, exploitation, injustice. Coming from a specie with history of severe torturing your similar, dictatorships, wars. And in the end, you still can feel happiness? I must say, happiness is just making you blind. And if it’s not the case, if you’re still happy while being aware of all the pain of this existence, then I must say, I’m afraid of you.
