As he swam in the Mediterranean . . .
Nietzsche gradually changed his philosophy of pain/pleasure, and with it, his perspective on difficulty.
Watching the sun set over the Bay of Naples at the end of Oct 1876, he was infused with a new faith in existence.
He felt he had been old at the beginning of his life and shed tears at the thought that he had been saved at the last moment. ~Alain de Botton
