@BirbFoodPrmr I agree that suffering shouldn't be romanticized, but I argue that merely understanding it isn't enough. Rather than escaping suffering, we should transform it into strength and self-overcoming. To truly love life is to embrace even its suffering and affirm our fate entirely
@BirbFoodPrmr I'm not denying its value of course
It's a rational and resilient approach to life, and it even aligns somewhat with Epicurean hedonism, which I personally embrace. I still think your perspective is much closer to Nietzsche's ideal of the Übermensch
