Everyone, at one time or another in life, suffers; but not everyone reacts to their suffering in the same way.
Some are more adept at enduring and overcoming their sufferings than others, and there is a strong component of positivity and willpower in that ability.
While you can never completely avoid suffering, you CAN constructively lessen the extent of its negative influence over you.
