No prospects for the future except getting old and dying...most likely alone.
All seems kind of pointless sometimes, doesn't it?

It COULD be pointless -- it's up to us to make our life have a point. I think of people who have made extraordinary contributions to this world like Tom Edison, Beethoven, etc. --- they made life much better for those of us who came after.
Even ordinary people can add much the life of those who follow. So I think that we're here (in part) to make life better for our descendants, and to bring joy into the world while we're alive as humans on Earth.
As far as any "hereafter" is concerned -- we don't know for sure. But I like to think that whatever miraculous process put us here and helps us grow into adults, that same process extends naturally to what happens after death. That is, something about us continues on --- what it is we have yet to discover.
Xena , I watched a movie last night I think you might enjoy. It stars Diane Lane,,,,,,," Under the Tuscan Sun".
I won't say much about it , but will say that it is about life changes, and perspectives. Sloan told me about it awhile back and I have been waiting to watch it. I was pleased and it had some beautiful scenery as well.......((((((((Xena)))))))))
Get some popcorn, a glass of wine, ( yeah that goes together....hehe) and take care of yourself. You are much loved here. Tell me what you think about the movie when you get a chance to watch it ok?
I felt alone and shitty. Life was meaningless. Silently sat by a stream and just looked, listened and tasted what is it to be. Gentle sounds of water trickling, the breeze in the leaves and birds twittering. Smells of wet earth and leaves. Warmth of the sun on skin. The sense of breathing, of being. Life was breath-takingly beautiful and I was it; all of it. Then I walked away, each step taking me farther back into the confines of my mind and past and future. Life sucked. But then, I was no longer really with life but strapped instead to a wall in my mind. I was not alive, but dead. That, is what sucked. Go take a walk Xena, out into a place that tastes of beautiful peace, and be very present with it. Let it teach you. When we learn how to be really present with Life, it can be a wonderful experience just to wash the dishes. I kid you not. j
