All my life great endeavors were sold as the center of human existence- striving for greatness in a field, art, philosophy, fighting and standing for something, caring and trying. We studied these "great accomplishments of man" in school for 13 years before we were released to the world ffs.
Well mfw I turn 30 and am knocked with the realization that all that '"meaningful" shit only looks good on the youth and 20s. Society doesnt care to watch some 30+ dabbling in those areas. Then you start to see rapid signs of aging and your body becoming a husk of its original true self, and it becomes clear that all there is to do past this point is try to survive and maybe make a family or some shit.
In a greater cosmic sense, any notions of making important strides were really just a foolish attempt to stave off the truth of impending death, at which point all those endeavors and creations you thought were important will be made instantly meaningless.
