    live life to the fullest because why not
I think a big component of happiness and/or peace is finding the strength of will to change the things you can, and learning to accept the things you can't change. I think the latter becomes more difficult the more educated one becomes. But not impossible.

    There can't be nothing
    cogito ergo sum
Incidentally, I used to think Nihilism and Solipsism were the same thing, until I started looking into them a few months ago. Apparently Metaphysical Nihilists actually reject cogito ergo sum, arguing that existence may not be distinguishable from nonexistence. I get Solipsism, but Nihilism is a little too left-field for me. But still intriguing.
