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:
I think the problem is, is people trying to bring meaning to life in general while ignoring what purpose they could bring in their life. Every single life that’s been lived, has been tunneled through the eyes of just one life, per person. Some people’s scope via influence, has brought purpose and meaning to the lives of others. Other times, it comes down to what you do with yourself, that brings its own meaning.
And people are leaning on all sorts of things to bring some sort of meaning to their life. Religion is a large part, because everyone fears as to where they’ll go after death, they don’t truly know where they’re going or whether there is even an afterlife, so why not believe in a God or another deity that has all these versions of hells and heavens? It brings a level of comfort knowing that there is some purpose.
But still, I think people just miss the mark on finding purpose in the general sense of life, than focusing on finding their own purpose by making it as they go.
