I like to think about this stuff too but I like to counterbalance it with trying to understand how insignificant we are. Scientists say the earth is about 4 billion years old. We might be here for 80 years or so. Scientists say there are more stars in the visible universe than there are grains of sands on all the beaches in world and the earth is just one planet revolving around one star. In the grand scheme of things how big are our problems really? I don't have the answer to anything but I guess I think we should work hard to understand what will create a fulfilling life for us as individuals but not take things too seriously because so much is out of our control.
