tbh i had that sort of crisis when i was about 19 or so. eventually i just stopped caring about it all that much. there was no reasoning or rationale to this change of heart really. you just get used to an idea and then grow to accept it over time. you get a pretty good run out of life if you are born under the right circumstances, which almost everyone here with net access most certainly was.

I haven't felt crippling existential terror about death for years, but that doesn't mean I'm cool with the idea. I can deal for the moment since I don't see any way to attain immortality for the foreseeable future, but if it ever becomes a possibility then you bet your ass I ain't dyin' for ****. All my acceptance and rationalizations are going right out the window and I'm gonna get me some eternal life.

Why should I care what the universe does or does not owe me? It's not even an object, let alone an inanimate one, so I don't owe it anything either. Anything in said universe is mine to do with as I will and I'll do what I like and want what I want.
