For a more philosophical approach, I highly recommend "Heidegger: An Introduction by Richard Polt" to explore this exact question.
To dig in further, it is very reasonable to ask "Why does the universe exist at all?" from a physics perspective.
But you can get even more granular when reflecting on your conscious experience and be like "Why does anything exist at all? Why am I experiencing this experience at this very moment?".
I had these sorts of thoughts a lot throughout my childhood, but recently I have had a very visceral internal experience of "Why the hell is this happening at all?". Nothing I write can communicate this internalization, but it does shake your sense of self and reality quite a bit.
