Nihilism

[trayertrash]

There's no point to this thread. It is as irrelevant as our ideas of life. All that's real is the void. We're all destined for it. Share your thoughts or don't. It doesn't really matter. We'll all be dead soon enough.

   Nostalgia is arrogant, because when death finally take you, all of your joys and memories will dissolve with your consciousness. It is as if you never lived. A hopeless infinity that was briefly eclipsed by a few decades that you pointlessly attributed meaning to.

Nihilism isn't death. It's the philosophical theory that life has no intrinsic meaning or value. With respect to the universe, existential nihilism posits that a single human or even the entire human species is insignificant, without purpose and unlikely to change in the totality of existence. Each individual is an isolated being born into the universe, barred from knowing "why", yet compelled to invent meaning. The inherent meaninglessness of life is largely explored in the philosophical school of existentialism, where one can potentially create his or her own subjective "meaning" or "purpose" Death happens to be the only certain factor we can expect. Life is meaningless if death will consume us all.

Birthdays are frivolous. There's no purpose in enjoying anything. We're all born to die.
