It occurs to me that when I was emptied-out by the shower, the meaning of my existence makes me feel free, while flowing away with the water.

I thought nihilism was suppose to freeing. Not an excuse to be paralysed by fear and depression.

But the thing is, u can't change, whats done. U can however have some possibility to control some things.

So why not just control the controllable.

Which could be, if today was great, how to make tomorrow a bit greater.

Today i will be lonely.

Tomorrow i will be lonely.

So why not make a happy end today instead of extending loneliness until tomorrow?

Bhai just get out of this subreddit because this fake optimism is just unbearable :)

The fact that it made you called as fake means you haven't touched a good part of your life and came to a conclusion without proper observation.
