Preach. Welcome to 40. Where life becomes beautiful because you realised you were letting it be controlled by other's opinions of you and they have a long way to go to find peace and happiness.
There is nothing more to do now but start enjoying the world, that tree over there, and the characters you meet along the way. Everything is beautiful when you finally start looking through your own eyes, not the lenses of others.
I wish I could transfer this mindset to younger people, but it only comes through time. Accept your insignificance, realise what you can do, and make every step forward being about joy for yourself and for others along the way. It all gets better when that clicks, but it feels like you have to be broken by it all first.
Your whole comment was great, but I think this is the most important part. Nothing matters in the grand scheme of things. Human history is a few thousand years, the universe is 13.8 billion years old.
Nobody cares about your trendy clothes, your car, or any of that. Do what you like and enjoy those around you who have had the same realization. Some people never do and I feel sorry for them.
In a recent Astrum video the host was talking about the state of the Earth in the upcoming millions of years. The Earth's crust is always reshaping. We just don't see it because our time here is so short. After we as humans are gone every thing we've done as a civilisation will be covered over under layers of new crust. Buildings will fall, the toxic mess will be settled, some life will continue after us, and new forms of life may arise. Thinking in that grander scale, nothing we do really matters. All we can do is try to not be shitty assholes within the ocean of shitty assholes around us. We'll all end up under a compacted layer of new Earth crust and eventually be swallowed up by our own sun. And that thought makes me feel calm.
