人们都希望自己的存在展现某种价值来实现自我意义，或者需要得到尊重。

People all hope that the own existence emerges a certain value to carry out themselves meaning, or need to get a respect.

What's the point of all of this study, all of this work, ?" all of this self-denial if I could just wind up" ? - this is a good question -- if I could just wind up dead tomorrow?

要是我就要死了，这所有的学习，努力，自我克制还都有什么意义“,-这是个好问题--要是我明天就死了呢？
