Pain in life is inevitable but suffering is not. Pain is what the world does to you, suffering is what you do to yourself [by the way you think about the 'pain' you receive]. Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. [You can always be grateful that the pain is not worse in quality, quantity, frequency, duration, etc]
Gautama BuddhaBeing able to make friends and keep them, welcoming others and sharing with them, a guide, philosopher and friend. One like this will be praised.
