This is more or less the approach that I take, but mine maybe has a bit more of a positive slant. This is all so fleeting anyway, I feel very lucky to be able to bear witness to the majesty of the universe. The unique patterns of molecules and energy that come together in extraordinary ways, against near impossible odds, right before my eyes... it's really something when you stop and think about it.
That fact that we even exist and have consciousness at all is really incredible. Even if we are, in fact, living at the end of the world, the fact that we flickered into existence just long enough to witness some of it is incredible. There's an eternity left for non-existence anyway.
