Hey everyone :)
I'm sorry if I offend you in any way in this question.
I started to think it would be amazingly problem solving if the world did end on December 21.
Now there's something you all need to know before you answer this, angrily.
I'm a very happy person, I love my family, I love everyone. I just see my life, & everyone's life, as pointless. Everything I care about, everyone I love, is not permanent. Everything dies, nothing lasts forever. So I don't see the point in caring so much about a life that is so unimportant as the ones we lead. This is something that really worries me at times. I feel like my thoughts are very negative, me being the happy, very grateful & thankful person that I am. My own thoughts confuse me sometimes, though.
I think that with all of these people I see on Facebook with completely naked pictures & people saying they hate their parents, bath salts, babies with iPhones, people who don't say I love you to their parents because its "embarrassing", crimes committed every day that involve deaths, people with no confidence, peer pressure, jealousy, addiction, teen pregnancy, rape, shooting in a theatre, shooting of children that could be the next president one day, & just
negativity in general.
I'll tell you one thing. When people commit suicide, I don't feel bad at all. In fact, I don't respect the idea of it at all. It's kind of even funny to me. The only people I would cry over taking their own life is a schizophrenic. They all have a good reason to want to die. They're trapped in their own brain. The brain is such an important thing to have control over. It literally summons up everything that ever happens for you (if you're confused, watch the movie "The Secret") and to not have control over it, you're basically as good as dead, anyway
People take things for granted. I would never take my family or my friends, or anyone who wants to be around me in general, AT ALL for granted. My life is too important to me for me to be spending it with hate.
Keep in mind, I want to live my life. I want to be happy as much as possible. But I can't just sit back & not say anything about the very sad & careless things that happen every day, & the crimes committed toward innocent people every day. This is my first attempt at saying something. Feel free to call me names, speak your mind. I want to know what people think.
Is it bad that I feel this way? Am I the only one? Am I wrong?
Any comments/opinions are appreciated.
If in any way, this upsets you, please let me know why.
Thank you for reading :) & have a nice day :D (link)

Hey. So I know exactly what you mean. Granted I am depressed and have severe anxiety, but I have the same thoughts. Mine might even be a tad darker than yours. So, no. I don't think that you are a dark person. I think you are just simply curious about the point to life and why we make so much of it when it's all going to go away in the end.
The money we make and the relationships we build don't go with us when we die, so I get the idea of why should we really care all that much. Personally, I don't think we should. This is where the "make the most of your life" comes in. You have all this time here to become whoever you wanna be. Money shouldn't be the center of that. Heartbreak and envy shouldn't either. We should simply be living to be happy otherwise what's the point?
You'll end up looking back one day when you are older thinking what the hell happened to my life? I'm successful, but now I have all this money I don't even have time to spend.
I was raped, I was suicidal, I witnessed a suicide, and I was stalked. I came out to friends and family. All of this happened in the matter of 4 months. But fuck that. I'm not going to let that be the definition of my life. There is no point to dwell.
Sorry if I ranted too much, but this is what I think about a lot.

You are a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Stop being miserable. You're alive. Doesn't even answer my question.
