There's nothing to cope about. Live your life and be nice to people and pursue things that make you happy. Why would this be insufficient?

The fight against evil was my purpose.
But ive realised that good and evil can only be defined if we know what lives meaning is.

I'm a christian. I don't have to worry about inventing some subjective meaning of life.
>>
>>18005772
Christianity is a made up subjective meaning to life.

It's been 40 years, and I still can't afford to pursue the things that make me happy.

I don't cope. I just don't care about it.

what exactly is it that God does, that gives your life meaning?

I don't really have much of a problem with it being meaningless, I guess.

Why would that be such a problem? Lots of things are meaningless but are still infused with meaning by our attachment to them. My cat was a good kitty. No one else cared like I did when he was gone, but despite him just being another cat, he was the cat I spent time with, and I loved him. I still miss him nearly a decade later. He meant something to me. That subjective experience reminds us what meaning there is, because we have little excepting our own subjective experience. But in that experience there's life, love, romance, friendship, self-improvement, masturbation, exploration, and adventure. When those things happen to you, you don't imagine they won't mean something to you or anyone else you share them with.

By going outside and enjoying nature. Living in the countryside helps you appreciate life more than living in a soulless suburb or city
>>
Reading existential literature can show that feeling meaningless is common and surmountable.
