You have missed the point and gone straight for the most extreme and unlikely events - in life we take things too seriously and think we are over important, i simply wind that back a bit and realise in the great scheme of things i am not so important and nothing really is when you take in proportion to the the world and history and the immensity of space. You experience is limited and so you thinking is matching that, when you come to face death and loss of marriage and so on - your likely to understand my perspective. Try to imagine out of 6 billion people the events of my life are relatively unimportant.

Life Is Inherently Meaningless, And Realizing That Will Set You Free
I have faced a loss of marriage and have come close to death on more than one occasion. I don't see how that's relevant, however. I was simply responding to the notion that nothing really matters. As a Christian, I object to it wholeheartedly. I contend that everything--no matter how seemingly insignificant--has a purpose within the triune God's sovereign decree. @awesomenyl professes to believe the same way, and since she does, I took the liberty of commenting on her post as I saw fit. Life is not inherently meaningless, and I decided to include in my posts a response to your comment--a response that I'm still convinced is appropriate.
I could agree with the notion that many things we fret about aren't so important in the grand scheme of things, but that's not quite the same thing as saying that nothing really matters or that life is inherently meaningless.
