Dissociation and viewing your existence as nothing is not beautiful and it's definitely not honorable. Our existence is the realest we're going to get. Your life is 100% of your universe dawg, act like it.

Space is barely even real to us earth critters lol

Ok, why are you acting like you're contradicting OP when the two viewpoints necessarily go together?

If the rest of the universe cares about us, we need to live our lives for the rest of the universe. If we're cosmically insignificant, then what's here and now is what matters, and what we have to live for.

To you. I find a great amount of beauty in appreciating how small and unlikely our existence is - in how important it is to us, and how unimportant it is to the rest of the entire universe.
