It’s a Buddhist misquote, it should read “there is suffering in life” but it’s often interpreted as “life is suffering.”
The intent is to express that our own desires and material wants are often the root causes of our suffering and if we can begin to understand that we can begin to free ourselves from the suffering that occurs in this existence.
See that makes way more sense, but I’m rereading the original comment and I’m still not getting that. I’m guessing Buddha didn’t say “you only have value insofar as how useful/reliable to others you are”
Edit: I guess this is kinda similar. I don’t think I like the word “useful”. I prefer the below phrasing
The value of life is not based on how long we live, but how much we contribute to others
Because no one is going to tolerate attention from someone who hasn’t any outside theselves. Just because someone’s ego is of a despicable opinion doesn’t mean they’re not narcissistic. It does mean they don’t yet know what the fuck to think about what they see.
Want a short cheat sheet?
Ego exists to create dying
Murder any notion of that sense. You’ll never be worth attention from outside youself any time you spot that nonsense.
This sounds like less of a truth and more like you are lashing out. Are you OK man?
Not only that, but the upvotes. So at least 4 people agree. Are you all ok?

But it does sound nihilistic as fuck on its own.
