I am not suicidal , but still wonder this... Even when I am motivated.

What is your answer?

We live, we die; it is what it is.

My two cents for dealing with it: while we are alive, we would do well to identify what makes that existence worthwhile, meaningful and rewarding, and get very good at producing or achieving it. What that is and how we achieve it, day by day, is uniquely personal.
Thanks for this!

It all reminds me of a joke:

Death is a part of life , from the moment you are born , you are aging and dying , of course there a accidents and crimes and such that can steal your life prematurely , but death is a mystery people hate mysteries so they focus and become obsessed with what happens when we die , in order to truly have lived death has to claim you at some point, but sitting on the sidelines wondering about death steals your life , life is short and uou should engage with as much of life as you can , because death bed regrets suck! And most people never get a chance to over come those regrets, so grab a hold of life and experience all you can welll you can , and leave the dying till the very end .

I view it as we live to help others. Why does anyone live? I say God was bored so he made people.
Thanks for this!

Why live if we can die?

Because you can't die if you never truly lived.
Thanks for this!

I guess I need something that makes my existence worthwhile, meaningful and rewarding.

That's why I study pharmacy but being a student it is not being a pharmacist...
