"Let death and exile and everything that is terrible appear before your eyes every day, especially death, and you will never have anything contemptible in your thought or crave anything excessively" (Epictetus 9)
If we keep avoiding everything that is bad then we will live in a bubble where everything is good, but it is not reality. We need to face problems in order to be aware of what other people are going through and how reality is. If we let death happen before our eyes instead of looking away, then we learn how to cope better. It is all a matter of welcoming everything, good or bad, death belonging to both sides.
