Is it an oxymoron to say that suffering can make us… happy?

" Do you like spicy food? Horror movies? Super hot baths? If so, why? It's a contradiction in the sense that suffering can make us happy ... It may not sound so radical in these simple cases, but psychologist Paul Bloom points out a most powerful point ... [that] suffering can bless us.
"So why do we do awkward և / or difficult tasks?" "We promote pluralism," Bloom said. Suffering is a necessary part of a meaningful life, as opposed to a life of absolute pleasure.
"According to the title of Bloom's book , where's the sweet spot?" Bloom suggests that worrying is more or less a curse. "
