> you're saying you can't understand why you should be happy to be here?

I think you miss the aspect of how insignificant existence is locally.

Sure the odds are astronomical but you weren't there to experience that measure in it's entirety i.e the the billions of years for you to experience the specialness of the blip. Also compare that with billions of people current existing at the same time as you who are also the product of this astronomial odds. The awe of the statement of the specialness of existence quickly fades away when you take the former statement into consideration

One could take this in the opposite way, we're so special that we are barely get to live long enough to experience reality for what it is and have to make do with such a tiny drop. The unfairness of it is misery inducing. We are so special that we get to appreciate this specialness only if we're lucky enough to be born in a first world country and to decent parents and born healthy. Aside from that we have spent a very significant time sleeping, pooping, dealing with BS, dealing with things out of our control etc etc

Existing is truly miserable if you aren't living in a first world country.

Man your statement is just hollow. The astronomical odds of existence is nothing celebrate by itself just as hope by itself is useless
