This is how i see it: Math sucks, just until you get it, then its easy and you feel smart as fuck for a brief second. As i got older, that really became one of my core values, instead of fearing all the shit that i will never get to understand, i instead appreciate how much cool shit theres out there for me to still discover and learn about. Growing that way both makes me feel good, but it also helps me make others around me feel good, and in the end, thats one of the few constants the infinitesimal small me can influence.
I also like how The Street put it in the chorus of "The Edge of a Cliff":
"For billions of years since the outset of time
Every single one of your ancestors has survived
Every single person on your mum and dad's side
Successfully looked after and passed on to you life
What are the chances of that like?
It comes to me once in a while
And everywhere I tell folk it gets the best smile"
You will probably never really understand why you are here, but you are, so you might as well try to enjoy it.
Edit: Didnt realize this topic was old as hell, but i guess that doesnt change my statement :D.
