    You get to exist and understand that you do. That’s pretty huge already, as far as I can tell.

    I see no evidence that life is supposed to be easy, even if it is for the majority of us commenting here.

      That’s an interesting comment. History and science have proven that we have evolved in a way that everything we do becomes easier. Arguably the end goal is that everything is easy (can be debated in many ways, even philosophcally), but there’s no denial that humanity has done everything in its power to make things easier. That’s the whole point of the creation and use of tools

        I guess you’re referring to the part I edited out where I said that there doesn’t seem to be any evidence that life is supposed to be easy. I don’t think that contradicts humans trying to make life easy.

        But it seems to me that a lot of meaning is derived from being at the limit of what is impossible and staying at the level of easy makes people depressed and unhappy.
