Everything is F*cked

Everything is F*cked - by Mark Manson'A book about hope'  In the infinite expanse of space/time, the universe does not care whether your mother's hip replacement goes well, or your kids attend college, or your boss thinks you make a great spreadsheetYou care, and you desperately convince yourself that because you care, it all must have some great cosmic meaning behind it. You care because deep down, you need to feel that sense of importance in order to avoid the uncomfortable truth, to avoid the incomprehensibility of your existence, to avoid being crushed by the weight of your own material insignificance, and you like everyone - project an imagined sense of importance onto the world around you because it gives you hope.You might say: "I believe we're all here for a reason, and nothing is a coincidence, and everyone matters because all our actions affect SOMEBODY, and even if we can help one person, then it was all worth it"This is hope. That's a story made up in your mind that your brain spins to convince you that it's worth waking up in the morning. SOMETHING needs to matter because without something mattering, then there's no reason to go on living.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
