How do you deal with this? You accept that you and the universe aren't special. You are what you are. And that might not make for the grand finale of a sappy, sentimental story, but it's real. It's true. And accepting reality is worth more than false hope.
The greatest possible life for me would be a life that is optimized for me. It would be a life where I can get anything I want. That would be the far greater life than this one. It would be a life in the distant future created through science.
But this life is all I have though. It is unfortunate and isn't much at all compared to a life where I can get everything I want, but it is all I have. But I do remain undecided as to whether there is an afterlife or not. Hopefully there is an eternal blissful afterlife for me after I die since it would be the far greater life than this unfortunate life of hardship I am living in now.
Lastly, if I could choose the type of life I wanted, then I would choose a life that is nothing but blissful, has no suffering, no misery, and no death. It would be a happy life where I can live in a mansion, have a highly expensive hdtv, etc. and don't have to worry about any suffering or problems in my life.
