it sounds like I'm stating the obvious here, but the way I see it, there are two opposites attitudes towards human life's general difficulty: Either it is meaningful, and overcoming it is a proof of personal worth, or it is meaningless, and as such it should be lowered for everybody.
I can't think of a third way but again this feels like a half-baked philosophical idea teenagers routinely come up with.

•you're supporting my argument. Difficulty proves *their* personal worth, because they want it to
The ones who are content to sit back and relax do exist, it's just that they stop once they've made fifty million bucks or so

•@Edward Kowal I wouldn't give any of these name to my children if I ever had more.
More seriously, I haven't read any philosopher. I can't maintain focus reading for too long and I've never craved formal philosophy.
But I'm curious what you personally got from them!
