Consider that a lot of the resistance to just existing is external expectations. I feel like I should always be doing something because I'm pressured to, or that small things bother me because I feel I need to perform. Being content to exist has to do with becoming aware of expectations and not letting them take over your life, I think. Might be why meditation doesn't work for some, as it's a rather brute-force way of doing this.
