In this video I attempt to share my view on acceptance of meaninglessness. The more we are able to accept that out existence is meaningless, the more we can thrive to be ourselves and do what we actually believe in.
Agree
Niceee one, i got the "direct" message to us on the end hahaha, you are 100% right. Now i gonna listen to some Metallica - Nothing else matters, love ya manito
so deep
I get caught in this mindset once in awhile. It can be helpful at times. I agree no wage monkey job is worth a shit. The real object, I think, is to manifest meaning; call it The Audacity of Persistence. You manifest meaning for the people around you. You leave a residue of it on the cultural landscape when you shuffle off. The goal is to be a good shepherd, to be a sink for evil, and try to do your part to turn the tide. And do it all with full knowledge that nobody cares. At the very least, you will leave with your soul. Hold on to your soul. You're going to need it.
I respect the approach, although it does take a firm nihilistic perspective that in and of itself is quite limited in view. Peering through a keyhole (physical perspective) and making judgements or saying things don't matter is quite a statement! We live by physical laws sure but if you look at how much science has been humbled by itself because of a new discovery or breakthrough. Life itself exists for itself as it cannot exist without being separate from the whole picture. It needs to observe its own reflection to have retrospection and meaning, contrast
