I think it’s ok to live a life where you don’t achieve something grandiose. Just enjoy what you can, and help others without it being a detriment to yourself.
It was an ok life, 6/10

I think we should try to make things better for the next generation. That’s the goal, build up civilization some. But if you didn’t cause destruction or damage, that’s not bad.

I prefer optimistic nihilism, such as John keats’ epitaph “Here lies one whose name was writ in water”. ashes to ashes dust to dust, the wheel in the sky keeps on turning, same as it ever was etc.

Do something nice for someone, even if it is a stranger. It can be something small for you, but mean the world for them.
When I go out, I can at least say I made the world a better place.

And if you cannot do something right then or maybe you are socially awkward just leading every interaction with kindness works.

You can not pay your bills and live forever.
