It changes absolutely nothing. What you see of nature is what managed to survive. It's linked to the randomness of nature's trials and of course in the end, we can only see what exists, so what has been selected, the rest having disappeared or died.
So contrary to what you said, there is certainly no reason to be "grateful to billions of chemical actions that your body performs unconsciously in order to be alive", since quite simply, this result is not the result of an intention. Nature is indifferent, it lets the laws of physics play. That there is a child in a house destroyed by an earthquake, she does not give a damn. Tectonic plates move, stresses accumulate, the laws of physics apply, it blows up. It's nature. Certainly we come out of it, but through our consciousness, we transcend it.
