This is gonna be a lil personal but considering we're almost the same age I'll give it a shot if it helps you

It doesn't

If there's a nuclear war, or some plague, then the earth will continue to spin

See you understand the cosmic joke

Graf...

Sun will still burn, everything else will remain the same

But you're not in on it

actually theres a lot of great things you can do that can be passed down by generation by generation. Just think about it. The things you say to people have an affect on them, if you create art like music, drawing, paintings, you name it, that can be passed down in your memory.

youll always leave some kind of footprint with someone

Think of Earth as a campus and you've been given the gift of life to paint on it, to in part shape it... or simply relish in its beauty whilst it DOES exist.

P much

Agrees crowd demon

^ went there when I was 19 😛

Optimistic nihilism 👌

My whole existence is going to be work, taxes, and eventually death

Not long ago I thought the same way. I saw no meaning to live at all and wanted to die as soon as possible. It wasn't until one of my family members died a couple of weeks ago that I realized what it is to be alive. One day you feel okay, then all of a sudden you could die. Time forgives no one and that's why we do the best of it as humans

Suicide is just a jump to the end that we're all bound to reach one day

No Graf

Your life is going to be existence..... In order to exist you will work some of the time yes... and it the rest of the time you'll be free to persue hobbies, love, knowledge

You get to be alive at one of the most crucial stages in human development

graf life is so short already, why make it shorter?

You build yourself up. You get perspective.

Now is an interesting time to be alive

My Grandpa died, my aunt died, and my grandma died. Didn't feel any more need to be alive after any of them

Yo a lot of my family is dead too

Lots of people's families have died

there are cancer patients that would give anything to stay alive and be with their family, not to minimize how you feel, but thats the truth.

That and I can tell you we're pretty close to nullifying a lot of diseases via CRISP-R and Targeted Therapies. So life will be longer. Imagine all the awesome technology you'll get to witness.

Living doesn't mean all work and stress. Living means laughing so much that you cry, and appreciating all the times you have with the people who are around you

I would gladly give any of them my years if I could

We've all been there.

Especially someone with a terminal illness

sarai is right as well

But 16 is isn't the age to make that call.

Agreed teen suicide is just a waste

You've got so much ahead of you

You'll come out of this and you'll probably be a really selfless person who helps lots of people. 😃

You just gotta pass through whatever shittiness you're feeling at this early point of life

I've already helped many around me

Good

u gon grow up and make bank n shit dood
