“People fear death even more than pain. It’s strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death”
— Jim Morrison
Simplified Meaning:
Most people are more afraid of dying than they are of feeling pain, which seems odd because living often involves more suffering. For example, imagine someone struggling with a tough situation like losing a job. The stress, worry, and sadness they experience can feel very painful and last a long time. Meanwhile, death, although scary because it's unknown, ends all feelings of pain or suffering. By thinking this way, a person might realize that the challenges they face every day can sometimes be harder to deal with than the idea of death itself. This perspective can help people appreciate life more and maybe even handle their problems with a bit more courage, knowing that enduring tough times is part of living, which they already handle every day.
