It’s almost unfair that we are even consciously aware, because we’re born into suffering.

We’re born into misery.

It is not possible to live a life without some suffering. We’re wired for it, and the universe is wired against us.

We are in a constant battle from the day we are conceived. But that’s okay.

That doesn’t mean you have to get depressed, nihilistic, or existential. What it means is that you have to accept that you must be a warrior. You must fight—that’s the only option you’ve got.

It’s fight or die.

We don’t get a range of options.

You didn’t choose to be born, I get that. Neither did I. But you’re here now, and these are the rules of the game.

So you can either play, or sit on the bench and whine until you die. If you want to play the game, you’ve got to understand the rules—and the rules are: it’s unfair, and it’s hard.

If you want to enjoy this, you’ve got to enjoy the fight.
