Just know that there were billions of years before you where you didn't miss it. So you are not going to be missing anything when you go for the long sleep. Don't worry too much anon, just try and be happy as much as you can.

i don't care about dying, i care about the fact that i will never impact the world in a meaningful way. i don't want kids because the world is fucked. all women are whores, so i'll never get married. i always wanted to be a famous painter or photographer or filmmaker and leave my mark that way but the industry is fucked and i felt soulless and like i was working for the kind of people that i truly hate when i was in film. then i thought maybe i'd be happy if i were rich. but all the money in the world can't buy happiness or fulfillment. we are born alone and we die alone, and we can't take money with us.

nobody just 'makes it' as independent in anything. The point IMO is to keep grinding, regardless of what you have to do on the side to stay alive. If you want to be a film maker, do it every day, regardless of your 9-to-5. The more work you put in the better your odds are of getting noticed. I'm working on my art career. I'm a manager at a shitty art supply store 40 hours a week, but I'm grinding in my garage-studio every waking off hour. Within a year of starting at visual art, I started winning local painting competitions and stuff and there's demand for my silkscreen work. If you've got a passion, it deserves all the intensity that you can feed it.

Don't worry about it. You'll be back soon enough. After you die, you're just born again. As yourself, living this exact same life, not some reincarnation hippie bullshit. You've already done it countless times and you will continue doing it for all of eternity. If anything, a real death will be a pleasant surprise.

Read some stuff from Ligotti...everyone feels a sense of existential dread, not always consciously, but we are all trying to manage the inevitable. I don't like Camus' answer (suicide), because I like my life, friends and family. I like Jesus' answer - death is going to win, but only for a moment, and there is something beyond for the faithful. I go to church...it helps me appreciate the need for mystery and otherness in my life. I don't want to die, but I'm not really afraid of death either. You're asking an important question, anon.

>This is a good question, too. The atheist/agnostic has to answer this problem as well. Either you are left with meaninglessness, because that implies there is no way to redeem suffering. We're all just empty bubbles floating through a meaningless universe, popping out of existence indiscriminately.
OR
What Christianity says is that not only is God aware of suffering, but that he actually experienced it firsthand via the cross. He entered into our suffering...a suffering that is a byproduct of an imperfect world (call it sin, if you like). I prefer to believe that Jesus took suffering upon himself so that we could all live without suffering one day.

Why do genecels think like this?

No, you will not "be immortal" by "continuing your bloodline."

Whatever "you" are gets cut in half with each succeeding generation. Your precious genes (which are not precious) will quickly get diluted and dispersed, until your descendants are no more genetically "you" than you are your next door neighbor. (And that's assuming that your descendants even reproduce, which won't necessarily happen for even one generation, let alone "forever.")

We're also at the top of a human population parabola which physically can't continue. The days of exponentially-multiplying human generations (where one person could have tens of thousands of descendants) are over. 500 years ago was a good time to get in on that particular pyramid scheme, but now sure as fuck isn't.

You think you're unique, but you're not. You think your thoughts, desires and impulses are yours, but they're not.

I can't say for certain there is a point, but I would assume it's in the doing, the striving, and the achieving.

If a mother sacrifices herself for her child, should we say it is is pointless because the child will die eventually as well, or can we recognize the beauty and meaning in the gesture, without it needing to amount to something greater?

Appeals to emotion more than anything. There's nothing special about the child besides possibly more potential than the mother. Most moms have no choice its basically in their nature to do so and would be unable to do otherwise.

with general things like learning to walk or run, this would be a good explanation. But not if you tell of a previous life and can describe how and why you died, can describe where you lived and what life you led. All the things I told were specificially tied to one live (sort of medieval farmer who died of a sickness) so your explanation doesnt really cut it.

The mechanism of reincarnation is karma. Not necessarily 'what goes around comes around' but more like, biological death doesn't completely zero everything out, and the consciousness drifts away from the body and drifts somewhere else, potentially into a newly born being. How it drifts and where it ends up is affected by various conditions called karma.
