I always run into a mental block, however, when I try to practically apply my thinking. If life is purposeless, then why is there justice? Well maybe that is because this allows everyone to have a more equal chance to live their life the best that they can. But why do we then care about our legacy? If life has no purpose, then why should people think anything about me after I die, and also, why do I care what they will think. I'll admit, I do care in some amount how people remember me after I die. I would certainly prefer that the people whom I respect think highly of me after I'm gone. But my logic tells me that absolutely nothing should matter to me after I'm gone, since I will not know what is happening, or be able to care. But for some reason, I do care, now, in the living. For example, it bothers me now to worry that my family may choose to put a cross up as my gravestone, in the event of my death. Caring about what people think of me now makes some sense, as I think it is part of human nature to socially accepted, but after I'm gone, why? Maybe it's just a mystery of the human mind that is impossible to explain.
Even if life may not have a purpose, that does not mean we should not work to do good in it, for ourselves, and even for others,
