...the pain of life is almost unbearable. It is, in fact, so exquisitely painful that one wonders if this is the way in which we slide off the existential plane. Into what? Nothingness? Ha. That would be far too easy.
No, the pain is to ensure we never rise above whatever dubious 'station' we hold in life. Generations of noble or heroic individuals generate their own kind. Some of us, even those who had monied ancestors, even parents, but were devalued before birth and continuously afterwards, had no chance at a life even remotely free from constant burden and bullying. It is a sad commentary on life that those with the most compassion often experience the most agony.
Not that I'd know, of course.
