I see that it is freeing and I get the appeal, but I find it far more enticing to rage against the dying of the light. Life's meaning can for example be to help humanity thrive and at least try to work against everything that hinders us as humanity from achieving our goals, science shows the path here. Sorry for the pathos and obviously not everyone's cup of tea.

I mean, I love humanity deeply. So I feel for me to be happy I have to do something to help humanity.

But that’s literally just because I want to be happy.

Like Stirner said, paraphrasing here, “because I’m an egoist I want to help those around me. Their happiness is mine, and their suffering as well. I help them only to help me”. Truly conscious egoism is to serve humanity. It’s our burden as humans. We were born intrinsically linked to a whole universe of people.
