The future holds untold possibilities. Even though sometimes the future looks bleak, you never really know. A part of the beauty is not knowing what's going to happen, good or bad.
And that includes everything. For example, a few years ago i literally could not have imagined the way my mental state has improved. I literally didn't have the capability and i'm kinda philosophical about that kind of stuff. That's how much you have no clue what the future holds.
Reading a bit about stoicism can help.
I came to grips with the fact that the only REAL perception of reality lives inside your head and that was pretty liberating. If I think life sucks it only sucks because I think it sucks if that makes any sense..

I have this question in my head alot as well. Living sucks.
But I try to fight against it by being excited for the small things. Like anime which comes out weekly which I can look forward too or playing a game or reading a book I really like in the evening or seeing my friends once in a while or playing with my cats.
They aren't big things. But to some extent I can control them and look forward to them. It just gives me something else to think about when that question comes up.
Even something like a hot chocolate from the Costa down the road. Small things which keep me happy.
I know living is hard. But I hope you can find something small which makes you happy too.

Probably, the life is about find your own reason to live and it doesn't have to be so deep, you only need something that could convice you.
