Cheerful Nihilist in Decay

Rather than hating the universe for its indifference—the five mass extinctions, the endless expansion toward destruction, or the way creatures must sacrifice each other to survive—I find myself more frustrated by the systems humans have built.
The universe is silent, it only asks us to grow, reproduce, and stay alive. But humans have created a different kind of trap. We are born into a world of responsibilities: working just to survive, chasing money, and meeting endless expectations from ourselves and others. We are told to keep the peace and care for others' feelings, which is good for harmony, but it feels so heavy when we have to sacrifice our own selves in the process.
The irony is that we are "cursed" with intelligence. Our smart brains allow us to think about things much deeper than just survival. Sure, because of this, we can enjoy beauty and do what we love, but those feelings are only temporary. We aren't allowed to stay in that peace forever.
There is always outside pressure to be "productive." In this world, if you don't produce something, you can't survive. It's completely absurd! I don't know how much longer I can endure this. This is what I hate about the world. How about you? Please, feel free to share your thoughts here. :)
