Pain is an essential human experience, to have the complete experience of life, you must experience pain in the first place. The absense of pain makes life dull and boring. As Nietzsche puts it:
"Did you ever say yes to a pleasure? Oh my friends, then you also said yes to all pain. All things are linked, entwined, in love with one another."
So, what Im saying is that both pain and pleasure is incomplete without each other.
Many Hedonists emphasize avoiding pain, because they find that the greatest happiness lies in a state which is free from pain..but they are missing out on the fact that pain is the only thing that is stable and it can be controlled by you whereas happiness always depends upon other people. All our actions results from determining how much pleasure or pain is inflicted, and of course most of us choose the former, for the simple reason that they are too weak to go through it. Give it a thought, if you have to choose between the two which one will you choose?I would definitely want to experience the later, cause 'Pain Is Eternal'..
