Big Metaphysical Questions

Does any of this actually matter?

Examle

Nihilism, Existentialism.

A person that believes that what they do matters may be more careful in their actions, making sure that what they do will not negatively effect other experiences for them. Someone who does not believe that anything matters may be careless, as what they do now will not effect anything later.
