If there is no heaven or after life, what is the point of living?

Maybe you'll enjoy my point of view about this. I'm atheist, I do believe there's nothing for us after death.

What I like to imagine though is that through our lives, we're weaving this tapestry with everything that we're doing, and every hug and good moment is permanently on there. Time is a dimension we're moving forward in but that doesn't make the past stop to exist. Does that make sense?

Like after all is finished, all your memories and good events are still on there, in a tapestry we're not able to perceive but still real and permanent.

I use tapestry because I imagine if we're moving through time as a dimension, in a way we're kinda a long tube of human person extending from our birth to our death and mixing with other beings in time.

How long would it take for a supermassive black hole like Sag A* to emit a tablespoon of mass via Hawking Radiation?

Something I like to think about is when we die, assuming there's no afterlife, then you don't feel the passage of time. A second or trillion of years is the same. If there's ever a point in that future where you'd gain consciousness again somehow, then you'd feel as if you'd be there the second after you died. It doesn't really relate to black holes but I felt like sharing the thought anyway.
