Our relationship to suffering is quite complex.  It adds a quality to life that seems built into the fabric of our three dimensional reality. And although it appears within the backdrop of many things we experience; we continue developing an aversion to it at all costs. Why? Well, it seems to encompass many parts of the human experience we would rather not participate in.
Suffering seems to find its way into literally everything.  Every emotion, every heart break, every unfortunate loss of someone we love and even moments when we experience joy knowing that it may not last ; and despite our best efforts, it seems to enter into our field in moments where we are at our most vulnerable.  We often spend years trying to resist the clutches of suffering, until one day we realize how imperative it is that we stop resisting it. 
Have you thought about how suffering feels in the body and how it speaks to you? Have you thought about why you suffer and for what reason? From the spiritual perspective there appear to be two choices we have in each moment.  We can continue resisting it or we can use the feeling of suffering as an opportunity to learn about all the ways in which we cause it. All we need is enough courage to look inward and sit with all the lessons it has to teach us. It starts with you. It may sound a bit strange, but if lasting joy and happiness is what you seek; learning to understand your suffering could lead you to the path of finding it.
