“If suffering is inevitable then why put so much effort into harming oneself in advance? If we truly want to harm ourselves and believe that life’s going to bite us anyways, then why not sharpen its teeth by living as well as we can more often than not? Then, when life bites, we can get the full brunt of it and honestly see we were right when we come to our ultimate end. The worst thing that happens if we’re wrong is we’ve tricked ourselves into living a well life that didn’t allow us to exclusively be an instigator of suffering. Either way, everyone will be better off than if we keep taking those shots ourselves first.”
