My perception of this question may be a bit skewed, but...
No. It is from the depths of my pain that my eyes and heart awakened to pleasure. It is in those times that I learned to appreciate the dark and light, not being able to experience one without the other.
The struggles that I have been through have urged me on and given me the strength to seek a state of inner peace and contentment. The greatest gift in all of that is in the knowing that this is something I can work at and strive for, for the rest of my life. I am utterly committed. It is absolutely attainable. The pain will come. It is inevitable. And thankfully, so will the pleasure because of the pain.
For me, there is no greater pleasure than that of a peaceful soul, a wholeness, a state of joy, love, and gratitude, complete and total acceptance. Without those times when I could only see the glass half empty, I wouldn't have had the tenacity to learn that the reward was also seeing that it was half full. And even more so, just being grateful for the glass.
I don't want the middle ground. I want to feel it all, the bad and the good. I wouldn't trade the pleasure not to feel the pain.
It is best, the way that it is... pain and pleasure, good and bad, dark and light, all polar opposites. They are truly meant to be.
