I would love for a quiet foggy Saturday night all by myself! I suppose the grass is always greener.

You eventually get sick of it, plus it's cold and when you MUST to go outside to do stuff is a pain in the ass

Same! My first emotion upon seeing this was "oh god, I would love that kind of solitude"...

No one's life has inherent meaning friend. You have to give it meaning, even if it is only meaningful to you.

Are your shoes outside on a balcony? Don't they get wet? If it fogs where you are, I assume condensation would form on the ground outside most nights.

Its what i can't understand about this photo. Surely those shoes would be getting damp.

That is a nice photo, without you I would not have seen it, it has meaning.

Keep taking photos, it is nice to have and look back and see either your good memories, or sometimes you need bad memories to see how far you have come.

I love your photo. You should take more photos, even if you don’t share them with anyone! I hope the comments here help you feel a tiny bit of meaning.

Honestly, we’re surrounded by all this messaging that life should be grand and rich and full of all this important stuff and relationships in order to have meaning. I prefer the approach to life suggested by Kurt Vonnegut:

I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different.

I've the same philosophy.

What I found helpful is, I can get into a flow of busy work that can last weeks. Schedule stuff, deadlines, etc.

That's a few weeks without disgust.

I don't have much to offer. If it were me I'd find a broken gadget and try to fix it.

That said, looking at your username you might enjoy parsing this video to see if you can find it :)

Nihilism is a common and valid solution to the four big life crisis points. Enjoy. :)

Oh, you again! Still complaining about your life but not prepared to do anything to make it better?

I've done enough. Not my fault if the world rejected me.

So, still not prepared to do anything to make your life better, then. Gotcha.

Check out Platypus's post history. He/she is just looking to wallow in self-pity.
