"Yes.... It's a gift to exist, and with existence comes suffering. There's no escaping that."

Wow, well said.

Suffering is part of the very fabric of life, most of the time we ignore and bottle up the suffering which makes things worse.

Suffering means that some form of affliction has happened to a loved one or thing. If we don't love anything we can't be exposed to suffering but a life without love isn't worth living.
