It's always a trade-off. Life is a trade-off. Nothing is really , completely perfect in life. We live it aiming at perfection which never happens. Nothing is simple or easy. However, no need to waste your time in misery.
Gabriel García Márquez in his Love in the time of cholera said something about wisdom, and how it comes to us when it is of no use. And this is true, we learn through experience.

The old English saying, "A rolling stone gathers no moth" is not true. It is indeed a dangerous saying. We need to go rolling everywhere to accumulate experience and knowledge.
