Why should I get a normal job when there is no hope for anyone?

Question

My original plan was to become an elementary school teacher but now I'm going a completely different route. I'm going to be a mercenary and kill terrorists and other scum.

What is the point of helping the futures of children if the future offers nothing but horror? Isn't it better to participate in the carnage if it is inevitable?

I really don't see any possibility of people changing. Things are getting worse and will continue to get worse.

Answer 1

d**n Dude, chill. You must be having a bad month? I raised three children who all have their own children now and I expect their children and grandchildren to have families as well.

Obviously there are some bad things going on in the world, but those things are temporary.

Get over yourself and start looking forward instead of up your own A$$!
