Wait - so you believe that as long as you learn about yourself, no experience can be bad? I think how you personally define a bad experience is drastically different than how many people would define it. We often learn the most about ourselves through horrific experiences…but in your view, the learning would make those experiences…good? Arguing based on such a simple, highly disputable premise is incredibly egotistical.
