Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Who sez it should be the hardest?

Why I try to choose the easier way, at least now........

K. The reason why the hardest most challenging is chosen is cuz WE as the human animal long for excitement---stimulations----o... all kinds be it violence and competition (sports for example), or sex, or money, or coveting JuNK and crap WE CONSUME AT WALMART and starbucks* and **** like that...... that we don"t need that never satisfies our lustful urges to feel! Taste! touch! Without those things what is the reason for living?
