pitfalls of derived existence

two diverse examples:

1. people's emotions and day to day lives driven by the success/failures of the sports teams/sportspersons they like

2. some "social activists" seeking to justify their existence by claiming to help the under-privileged

in both cases I would like to argue that the thing that you use to justify your state of existence
or use to give "meaning" to your life are questionable causes

the only self consistent philosophy appears to be meaninglessness of existence ..

But then, the only way meaningful way to lead life is to end it. And, how many of us have the courage to do that?
