When is suffering easier?

The idea of suffering being easy is probably not something you’re used to thinking about, but it’s true for so many.

You see, suffering can sometimes be easy because change is hard.

So many suffer in poor health, bad relationships, spiritual emptiness, and other areas of life because it’s easier than doing the work required to create change in their lives.

Suffering is easier for some because there are endless factors, both external and internal, that can be blamed for the suffering. However, if the decision is made to change, then the responsibility shifts from things that can’t be controlled to something that can, and this can be a huge burden.

If there’s something you’re suffering through just because it’s become easier to do so, then perhaps now’s a good time to re-evaluate.

The idea of change might seem daunting at first, but you don’t have to go all in at once. Instead, you can ease into it at your own pace. And if you decide at some point that you don’t like the change, you can always go back to the ease of suffering.
