You must seek something else, or something is seriously wrong with you

The classic argument/excuse goes like this: how do I know that God exists? why would I search for such an existence?
The answer is in this Quranic verse:
Sura 25
( 36 ) And We said, "Go both of you to the people who have denied Our signs." Then We destroyed them with [complete] destruction.
( 37 ) And the people of Noah - when they denied the messengers, We drowned them, and We made them for mankind a sign. And We have prepared for the wrongdoers a painful punishment.
( 38 ) And [We destroyed] 'Aad and Thamud and the companions of the well and many generations between them.
( 39 ) And for each We presented examples [as warnings], and each We destroyed with [total] destruction.
( 40 ) And they have already come upon the town which was showered with a rain of evil. So have they not seen it? But they are not expecting resurrection.
The answer to the classic argument is my bold; verse 40: actually despite the signs; a group will disbelieve and reject because of the hatred of the resurrection idea. The hate of judgement.
It's not always about logic. In many times it's about will,dreams and wishes. People don't want heaven and hell; but want "neverland" and "pokemon go"; need a place where one is never judged for their sins.
Well, the story's told with facts and lies; but it's rare to see a brave person who is ready to tell with truth and truth only. Look around you; everybody lies.
Everybody kisses sins.
Many will blind and close shut their eyes in front of very clear signs; signs like the cosmos, aging, dead bodies and their foul smell, graves, bones, trees, rain, love, hate.
In terms of believing; life is very fishy and strange. A normal sane human will detect how phony it is; how fishy, how stupid, how unfair. Those who want to live it up have serious issues with their logic: it is going to end so what the hell???
You do stuff in it and you can see their end, you have sex and contribute to the advent of a new human KNOWING that he/she will grow old and die, or die before that, you can also see the rain coming over seasons to give life to dry crops, you see the crops dying and become dry, in a scene repeated day by day.
Weird? mmmm what's new?
Humans love to dream. It's not like they can't notice; the idea is their in our heads. Yes; they even came up with a word called "routine" to describe this repetitive cycle.
Life itself should lead you to seek another life, a better life, a life that only exists in the stories told by religions.
Here is where one seeks the truth; learns about God, and in a moment of true divine guidance that person chooses Islam.
Sura 10
( 7 ) Indeed, those who do not expect the meeting with Us and are satisfied with the life of this world and feel secure therein and those who are heedless of Our signs
( 8 ) For those their refuge will be the Fire because of what they used to earn.
( 9 ) Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds - their Lord will guide them because of their faith. Beneath them rivers will flow in the Gardens of Pleasure
Desperation comes from life itself. Life on earth have no taste because of the "T" in the plain of life: WE LIVE IN THE SPACE/TIME FABRIC.
It's always a space, with a Time that haunts good times.
All the pretty moments end; you know that just like I also know that. True vigilance and bravery are in admitting the truth, and realize the "Time" needle that is tearing the fabric of this world; promising us all of a decay; along with the toys around us (toys like the sun; the moon...etc).
Realizing that is guidance. Realizing that is what makes me desperate, but very so inclined to good deeds. This fabric is a mere test, this is the only way that makes sense.
