Nature gave us tools to fight boredom, but our mind, constantly judging, cannot help but weave self-hindering reasons.

Pain is inevitable for the ephemeral living entities that we are.

Swimming against the tide is wasted effort.

We subconsciously intensify our needs, yet act all surprised when sufferings are equally strongly knocking back at the doors of our mental stability.

Hence the importance of the right perspectives and mental models.

We fear death which we ignorantly assimilate to pain because of a misplaced education,

without realizing that we spend far more time being dead than alive in the immensity of time.
