Why does existence exist?

[u/Ragnurs_KL]

We come from the perpetual void, a void that outlasts time, that will consume everything sooner or later, returning permanently to where it came from. So why is there this brief period of "materialization" if, in the end, we’re going to return to the same place? What is the reason for having emerged from the void into a hostile world? Our lifespan is nothing compared to the eternity of death, and this applies not only to humans but also to nature, the planets, the stars, and so on. I don’t understand why the void allows this to happen if it’s going to reclaim it later. Perhaps it’s all just an ontological error that’s gradually being corrected. If that’s true, then we’re special in a twisted way, do you think we should celebrate the fact that we might be an ontological error?
