"There's a common misunderstanding among all the human beings who have ever
been born on the earth that the best way to live is to try to avoid pain and
just try to get comfortable.  A much more interesting, kind, adventurous and
joyful approach to life is to begin to develop our curiosity, not caring
whether the object of our inquisitiveness is bitter or sweet
Pema Chodron from her book "The Wisdom of No Escape
