Notice how much suffering there is in your own life.
There is sickness, aging, and death, which you naturally seek to avoid.
There are temporary experiences, like eating good food, that seem to be pleasurable in and of themselves but, if indulged continuously, turn into pain.
This is the suffering of change.
When a situation changes from pleasure to pain,
reflect on the fact that the deeper nature of the original pleasure reveals itself.
Attachment to such superficial pleasures will only bring more pain.
