"… we can distinguish between the normal pain of life – difficult emotions, physical discomfort, and so on – and actual suffering, which is the mental anguish caused by fighting against the fact that life is sometimes painful." Kristin Neff, Self Compassion
We will have pain and discomfort. However there is always some control in the amount of thinking we give these states. We can choose NOT to suffer.
