I understand your existential angst.

I agree with you in that nothing really means anything. Except when we make it mean something.

Where do we find the will to make meaning? Besides scarcity, I can't say, and even scarcity only applies when certain subjective labels are applied.

IMO, death is not sad. I find it tragic only when life is stolen, and terribly tragic when people suffer. And suffering includes those who feel nothing, which I might argue is the worst kind of torture. To exist for nothing is painfully tedious.

Beyond telling you that your English is exceptional for your second year, I don't know how to comfort you - other than to recommend looking into these 3 topics:

  • Existentialism - the only philosophy that makes sense to me
  • Zen Buddhism - especially about nothingness and suffering
  • Dr. Gabor Maté - the only doctor I've seen who understood depression
