If I thought this life was all there is I seriously could not stand being alive.
The only thing that keeps me going, the ONLY THING, is believing that at some point something really good is going to happen to me.
I've given up on something good happening to me in this life, so all I have left is the life in the hereafter.
So if I was an atheist, I would probably kill myself so my wife could get the life insurance money.
I am being totally serious here.
Since you are being serious, I will also be serious for a second, although maybe few people will believe that I am. What you should do is sell all your material possessions and hit the road, ala Jack Kerouac. You probably share the delusion that owning things will somehow make you happy. Two characteristics I admire of Jesus are those of insulting religious authority and owning nothing. Modern Christians are hypocrits.
