Every action that we take, or inaction has a cost as well as a profit. If I chose to be a soldier, obviously I am going to "suffer" with rigorous training, (brain washing), discipline etc, if I chose to be a scientist, I am going to "suffer" through countless hours I spend researching, if I chose to be an artist I will suffer the countless hours I spend practicing, etc. If I chose to be nothing, my profit is having no cost (other than the cost of having no other profit), and my cost is having no profit (other than the profit of having no other costs). Side: True.

We suffer because we and everything around us is finite. Everything breaks down. Nothing we love and work for is guaranteed to last and a heck of a lot of it will be taken from us. We suffer because we always want more. It has nothing to do with remaking ourselves. Failing to remake yourself would lead to suffering too. We suffer because we are, and its not good enough for most of us to just be ecstatic about the fact that we got to live and have what moments of joy were offered to us. And all of that is okay. Side: What load of happy horse sh!t.
