This is something that plagues me, and connects to a larger idea. If all life is built on suffering (birth pains, suffering in life, death, killing and eating, etc.), why should we value life? any answer to this would be greatly appreciated, but im willing to converse on the topic as well.

This is understandable, friend. You live in a world of plagues, so why wouldn't you feel that way?

I think the best thing to understand is that you're in a world of dark energy and distractions that are very easy with noticeable rewards. If spiritual enlightenment involves a total love for all life, and you eat a meal that comes from slaughter, suffering, corporate greed, and you justify it the way most people do, you're only hurting yourself. I'm assuming you don't raise your own livestock and kill them, drain them, and butcher them yourself? Vegetarianism is hard, especially if you did it in the past. There's obnoxious stigma, you can hardly eat at restaurants, you have to turn down meals, and most food is actual shit if you want to get proper macros/micros met.

If you look at our reality in that way, you see that nearly everything can be put into that equation. From falling into the political divisiveness trap, to loveless sex, to supporting the entertainment industry, to social media. 

You will have to shed a lot of things from your life and will alienate yourself from the mass of people who are caught up in it, and in the end thats a personal choice.

That's kind of a schizo rambling, but I'd be happy to discuss it with you.

>Why should we value life?
Imagine I'm right and you can enlighten your spirit and move forward with it. If this destination values love and peace, why would the 99% be welcomed in to it? It would recreate lower realms like our modern reality where crime, violence, greed, and evil run rampant. You're preserving your light in the dark with no observable rewards.

For a more educated, less schizo answer, study Buddhism.

True, I never thought about it that way. Humans can look at things/world and decide to make them better or worse, its something to be grateful for, rather than despise.

Ah I see. It's true, everything seems like it's against the person who just wants to live a positive and helpful life. I don't know if I can abandon everything yet, because in all honesty, even if I'm saved, what about everyone else? 
 
thanks, I wish the same for you.

>what about everyone else?
A question I ask myself still, especially after leaving holidays with the family. 

Another good question. Surface level things would be meaningless sex, greed, hatred (look into 'ego traps.' The far-left of America is caught in the biggest one I've ever seen and is fueled by hate while pointing outwards), a disrespect to the spiritual world, hunting/killing (Another personal choice on how extreme you want to be with the 'size' of life you're ok killing).

Deep enough down the rabbit hole, you may find yourself realizing we are all the same consciousness experiencing itself, just granulated. If a spider is physically small, it becomes easier for you to justify killing it. And the more stigma will come at you for being 'That person who won't even kill a spider.'
