The meaning of life is to live. You’re only doing it wrong by dying. You are how the universe furthers entropy. The only “role” you have is to have a role.
I had a discussion with an aunt about how large the universe is to us. She talked about how small we are, and how that could make any insignificant. I answered by saying that because we’re insignificant, there is no higher order or rules we should be following. Literally everything is up for us to decide. Though, we have biology to guide us. Some consequences of being a social species can include supporting the weakest and avoiding harm to each other. It’s really up to humanity to choose. We have all the power we want to have.
Life is a cycle. You gotta exist to reproduce but then you gotta get out of the way at some point.
People apparently think that math is emotionless and takes away any spirituality from the universe. I could not disagree more. Math shows that reality is not straight and is in fact very bendy! I think people get stuck at a level of math where they think it’s a dusty toolbox instead of a language. If they pushed further, they’d see how math proves an uncaring universe wrong.
