If we were all immortal and had no children then life would be just as, (or if not more) depressing. You live for your children; they carry on your name and your memory. Of course you can choose not to have any children and die a lonely old man or woman with nobody left in the world to care about them. I almost guarantee anyone on their death bed would regret not having children at some point, as I know I would. The purpose of life is to see the next generation is healthy and to pass the wisdom you learned from your parents along with your experiences so they don't make the same mistakes. It is an endless cycle. Anything beyond this such as the afterlife is left for the person themselves to decide, and with death so close many seem to choose to believe in it.
