We are simply life that has been allowed to evolve over millennia into conscious beings. We are just "there," no different from plants, or fungus or bacteria or rocks or monkeys or deer or anything else. We are seeing and observing the world from our perspective so it is challenging to think anything other than that we are special and are "meant to be here" but we truly are not. We are simply bacteria that has, arguably, been allowed to evolve for WAY too long. We are like an infection on the Earth in that we destroy everything around us. We're just a growth, nothing more. A complex one at that, but still just a growth.
Such depressing words aren't for all. There are a lot of people who after thinking about what you described, just commit suicide to skip short sad life. And religion steps in and prevents a lot of such disasters, even if it brainwashes.
