Does anyone else feel like life is a giant playground of some sort.

When you take away all the man made inventions and assigned roles, you have this big wide world with all these creatures trying to survive & reproduce and rest to repeat the cycle of survival until they can no longer. While being gifted some water to drink by rain or lakes/rivers/oceans & food to eat grown by the earth's plants & such, it all just feels like I'm living in some sort of zoo or playground, but I think zoos are usually quite safe places to be, whereas Earth has another side to it that can be quite chaotic, dangerous to life. It just makes me wonder about the point of all this. Of course the goal is to lead a happy & hopefully peaceful life while being as good as can be but I do sometimes feel like life on earth is some kind of cosmic experiment that perhaps has been left running for a very long time now. It's like people that develop these big open world video games that have npc's programmed to act in certain ways. If there even was any creator that is.
