Easy

It is easy to hate and it is difficult to love.  This is how the whole scheme of things works.  All good things are difficult to achieve; and bad things are very easy to get.
~ Confucius

When I think of the difficult things in life, I think about things like the following:

* overcoming racism and other forms of hate
* finding one's purpose in life
* being a good partner, parent, friend
* aerospace engineering
* walking the Appalachian Trail
* writing a really good song (poem, story)
* eliminating violence in the world

I don't really think of making a grilled cheese sandwich as one of the most difficult tasks we face.  Is it because of things like the invention in the photo above?

No. 

It's because making a grilled cheese sandwich isn't really that difficult.
