What truly sucks about life? (piefed.social)

The whole concept of not knowing what you've got until it's gone. Remember that song you used to hate hearing and now 20 some years later, you'd wish we'd be back to music like it because music today is too artificial and AI-powered? Remember nearly a lot of things you criticized and now have a soft spot for because everything now has gone to shit?

Yeah, that hits hard. What sucks is that sometimes, you don't know for certain if you're experiencing the best of things. But once it passes you, give it 1 - 5 years, you'll know it.

What if you like doing those things? I don't regard any of those things as a grind. I find them liberating and I hate it when I life gets in the way of me doing my chores.

I can't say I enjoy those things, but you're right, it's far from a grind. Those tasks are a part of daily life, they need to be done so best crack on and get them done. Anyone who sees those things as an inconvenience or a hindrance to the extent it makes them hate life are not mature enough for the gift of life.
