crisis

sometimes i wonder what happens after we die? i don't know if the people around me are as existential as i am but i wished more people worried about the stupid things i worry about. its troubling, but at least i wouldn't be left alone with my own thoughts all the time. i wonder if people will miss me sometimes, and it makes me cry. but what if people don't miss me? what if people just don't care after i die. what the hell am i supposed to do then?

I went through an existential period in my life a while ago, and if it's okay with you, I'd like to share what I found to be helpful to me and what I realized.

At that time in my life, I was starting to realize grey areas and loopholes in my religion. Something that I had been raised on and whole-heartedly believed without a second guess. I started to think, "Well if this isn't real, then what is?" And I started getting consumed by thinking about how I was going to die or how my loved ones would die. When it would happen. How people would react. Would I be remembered after I was gone? Maybe for a few years until everyone starts to forget and then die themselves. What's the point of living if no one will remember you? Why stay here when there's nothing after death?

Then I had an epiphany. Yeah, there might not be anything after life, but why does that matter? We were once nothing before, so why is it so scary to return to that same familiar void? Maybe people won't remember you, but what does that matter anyway? I've learned to live for myself. Take it day by day and find the little things that make me happy. Like watching a pretty sunset, finding a cool bug, finding a new manga or anime series that teaches me a new life lesson or changes my perspective on something, petting my cat, literally anything that brings joy. It doesn't matter if my entire day was horrible, as long as I had one, small moment of happiness.

I hope you find peace in the suffering that is being born. Feel free to message me anytime if you want! (:
