How do you cope with pointlessness?

[PepperBlossoms]

Nihilism, lack of inspiration.

[Preety_India]

By thinking deeply that everything has a beautiful meaning. 

Be cheerful and look at all the wonderful things around you. 

Capture the beauty of the moment and treasure it. 

Become a treasure collector. Cherish life. 

 

[PepperBlossoms]

We end up making our own meanings.

[Preety_India]

It doesn't matter whatever meaning you create, as long as it serves a positive purpose. 

Think of it as art.

If nothing means anything you can do whatever you want.  Maybe this will inspire you.

If you want serious change, I'd look into IFS therapy, and see, hear, feel meditation

Could try staying there for awhile and see what comes up ..no need to force something. Maybe an insight will come to you along the lines of: I am free to create/be as I choose. Something will eventually call your attention in this space of emptiness/vastness.

it's true, nothing has meaning in any kind of subjective sense we give it. except that's a perception, if you truly realized what life is about by seeing through the eyes of the creator inside you would never ask such a question. you are making too many conclusions from your perception of ignorance, explore more deeply the depths of what you are - that's what this forum is for

By realizing that pondering the pointlessness of life is not the point. You can only get to the point when the question falls away. As no logical answer will ever satisfy the feeling of pointlessness. Because this is what you truly want, you want to get rid of the sense/feeling of pointlessness in your life. You don't really want a logical answer. Because realistically you only want a logical answer for pragmatic usage, to use it to get rid of the feeling of pointlessness. But the solution is not found in pure reason or logic, it's in the total experience of life.
