Pain is truth and truth is philosophy.

Practice to live, die, work through the pain.

There is nothing pleasurable about practicing virtue in your life but the outcome is what all the fuss is about.

You work for your freedom.

There is no material benefit.

Doesn’t attract the opposite sex.

You talk, practice and work it out with like minded people and then there is commitment to family and friends.

In the end you stay obscure and die like most everyone else’s messed up lives.
