Existential Dread

by Khushi Salgia

We were brought into existence for reasons unbeknownst to us. And we will eventually have to stop existing whether we like it or not. There was an eternity of nothingness before we were born and there will be an eternity of nothingness after we die. Time is infinite, space is infinite, and there are so many things about the universe that we will never know. How do we contend with this information, or lack thereof? How do we find meaning in life when life is meaningless? How do we combat fear of death? How are us mere little moral beings supposed to live our lives without knowing what life is?
