Does every blessing come with a curse?

This curse can be in the form of anything, whether it is worry/fear/anxiety or physical/emotional/psychological harm...

What are your thoughts and can you give examples?

All pleasure must be paid for with pain. I learned that much. There seems to be a general balance; but, some things cost less than others. But there's always a price.

You eat McDonalds a bit too often, you get diabetes or heart disease.

You exercise, do what's right for your body, you get a runner's high and health; but, you also have to endure the pain of exercise to get it.

You fall in love, well, the entire process is pretty much a curse. That's a pretty straight forward one.

You have sex, you get an STD. Or worse, a baby.

Everything has a cost.

@Tatsumi I have a saying, based on personal experience, that what ever brings great joy and pleasure, can also bring even greater pain.
