One thing that I've noticed is that people tend to find their joys to be common, something most people share; but their pain they think no one else can truly understand.
Let’s say that is literally true. If your pain is unique and deep, how important is it to you? How frightening? And if you joy is mundane and fleeting, how important is that?
What is our attention drawn to?
It’s drawn to what is important to us. What happens when your attention is drawn to that pain that only you know?
What a trap.
Or a joke. A really sick and funny joke.
The first only makes it more serious, the second reveals it all if for the load of shit it really is. ; )
