Discussion do you think your life has a value? do others think it?

[PeaceSeeker83]

life is worthless, no matter who you are. does making the rich richer and slaving away enough to buy a house and have kids suddenly mean you made a difference? you'll still die and those kids you raised will too and the impact you made on a handful of people will disappear along with it. it's sad but all of it is. all of that to still live better than 90% of humanity. i don't have to fight in a war if i don't want to, don't have to starve or be thirsty. but what difference does it make if my suffering is lesser if suffering is still there. does a gash not hurt because an amputation hurts more? living itself feels wrong and i can only hope this isn't hell and one day i'll be free

I think this has to be hell. And yes it doesn't matter who does what or what they experience, we all suffer to varying degrees. Many people used to say to me "be positive" and nowadays they are suffering. I can't really say I have a lot of empathy for them in all honesty. I save my energy for those who genuinely understand other people's suffering.
