As Solzhenitsyn put it, beneath all of our glad-hand, happy consumerism, therapeutic talk, is the howl of existentialism.
I think maybe we're talking about different things. Where an "all for nothing" stance I think is incorrect, as you have an impact on the people around you during your life, whether that's positive or negative. But to think that your life has importance doesn't necessitate a belief in life beyond the human body.
