Why we are suffering as human beings?

Introduction

If you follow the news, you may have noticed that there is a lot of suffering in the world right now. There are wars, famines, poverty, violence, and disease. But why should we care about other people's suffering? Why does it matter if someone else has a terrible life? The answer is simple: despite our best efforts as human beings to make ourselves happy, we still suffer. That's not necessarily a bad thing—just like happiness isn't always good either—but it does mean that happiness is something we all strive for, even though it can be elusive at times. In this post, I'll explain why happiness is so important for us as individuals and how we can achieve more of it in our lives through meditation techniques and other methods that science has shown work well when used consistently over time.

Happiness is not the same thing as a life without pain.

Happiness is not the same thing as a life without pain. Happiness is not the same thing as a life without suffering. Happiness is not the same thing as a life without challenges. Happiness is not the same thing as a life without problems.

For example, if you are currently having problems with your partner or spouse, or if you are having difficulties in your career or finances, this does not imply that you are unhappy and will never be happy again.

Similarly, if you have lost someone close to you due to natural causes or tragic accidents like car accidents, heart attacks, strokes, etc., that doesn't mean that this loss has made your life miserable forever! There will come a time when this grief will pass away and eventually turn into acceptance after some time when one realizes that it was all for the best in this world too!

A little bit of suffering is not necessarily a bad thing.

It's a fact of life that we all suffer. This is true for any human being. We all have times in our lives where we're not feeling our best, or maybe even at our worst. And sure, sometimes this pain can be caused by an external source—like when someone says something harmful to us or when we get injured in an accident—but often it's because of internal things like anxiety and depression.

But just because suffering is a part of life doesn't mean that it should always be avoided at all costs. Sometimes, a little bit of pain can go a long way toward making us better people and helping us grow as individuals (and ultimately making the world better). Here are five reasons why sometimes it's good for us to experience some suffering:

Happiness is a skill that you can learn

If you want to be happier, you can train your mind to be happier. If you want your life to improve in any way, all it takes is the right mindset and then taking action on what that means for each of us individually.

Mindfulness is the first step in improving your happiness and well-being because it helps us become more aware of our own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to create positive changes within ourselves. We often overlook the power of being mindful because we think that having an active lifestyle or getting things done will bring us joyelbut this isn't always true! In fact, being too busy can actually distract us from discovering what really makes us happy or causes stress in our lives (which leads me back again...). Mindfulness lets you see past those distractions by giving yourself time every day where nothing else matters except for being present with yourself at this moment—no devices allowed!

Many of the things that we think will make us happy actually don't make us happy in the long run.

There's a popular misconception that happiness is about getting what you want. But the truth is, we can't always get what we want, and even when we do, it might not make us happy in the long run. For example:

• You want to be rich so your kids will never have to worry about money or go hungry again. This can be achieved by working hard and saving for years on end until, at last, your dream of wealth comes true! And then it does... but you realize that now that you're wealthy, there are so many responsibilities involved with maintaining your wealth - taxes, investments, and so on - that all of your time is spent keeping track of how much money flows in vs. how much flows out (and since this requires constant vigilance over how much money actually goes into any one bank account), while being careful not to spend too much at any point lest someone realize just how wealthy they've been.When all is said and done, though, despite having achieved their goal of financial security through hard work and sacrifice, despite having gotten everything they wanted most dearly out of life, despite knowing full well now why they shouldn't waste time wishing for things they don't need anymore because those things won't make them happy anyway, instead all those people wish...

Meditation can help train our minds and make us happier.

It can help you become more compassionate and less judgmental of yourself and others.

One of the main reasons why some people may not want to meditate is because they do not think they have enough time in their day or week to practice it. For example, if a person works full-time, has children at home, needs to clean up after themselves, and performs household tasks such as laundry or cleaning dishes, there are numerous factors that could reduce the amount of time they could spend on meditation each day.The same goes for those who travel frequently or work long hours at their jobs. However, we only need to find 15 minutes out of every 24 hours in order for us all (yes, even you!) to start meditating today!

There are some secrets to happiness that are backed by science.

The first secret is to be grateful for what you have.

"The most important thing I learned about happiness was that it's a choice," says Shawn Achor, author of The Happiness Advantage and a leading researcher in positive psychology. "You can't change the past, but you can change your responses to it."

Being grateful for what we have is not just good advice; it's backed by science too. One study found that people who kept gratitude journals were more cheerful than those who didn't, regardless of their age or circumstances.

In other words, being thankful can make us happier even if our lives are generally miserable—and it might even help us recover from those types of situations faster!

You can't escape suffering, but you can learn how to be happy despite it.

Suffering is a part of life. It’s something we all experience at some point or another, and it can be very difficult to fully understand. Suffering isn’t always a bad thing, but sometimes it becomes too much for us to bear, and that's when we need help.

Suffering is not pain; pain is what happens after suffering has occurred. Pain can be physical or emotional, but not all suffering leads to pain; some people don't feel any signs of suffering at all! But even if you're suffering in silence, there are still ways you can find happiness in your life without making yourself feel better about your situation (though doing this isn't necessarily a bad thing).

Conclusion

So if you're feeling a little down, remember that it's okay. And if you're not feeling down, well, that's awesome! But don't forget about the rest of us who are struggling through life. It doesn't matter where you are when life sucks; what matters is how we deal with it.
