  Suffering is the catalyst of power; suffering is a scripture of enlightenment; suffering is a deep philosopher; suffering is a landscape of life with gorgeous flowers always open. How do you know the road is bumpy without setbacks; how do you know the strength of will without trials and tribulations; only when you fight with suffering on the road of life, do you know that suffering is also a kind of wealth. People are either the strong ones who overcome pain or the weak ones who succumb to it. The heavier the burden, the laughing is also picking, and crying is also picking. And then the bad life, smiling through it, is a victory. "People have sadness and happiness, the moon has a cloudy, clear and full, the matter is difficult to complete." Suffering is to a large extent a manifestation of the laws of nature, as Su Shi told us more than a thousand years ago. The attitude we should hold toward suffering is to face it squarely and optimistically. "A true warrior dares to face up to a miserable life, dares to face up to the dripping blood", "The sky will descend on a great task for a man, must first suffer his heart and mind, labor his muscles and bones, starve his body, and empty his body". Suffering is the journey of life can not go around the stage, is the road to success must climb over the mountain, we only know the bitter also taste, know the difficulties, fall and then get up, after the failure and then the courage to fight, to develop a strong quality, to have the hope of reaching glory. The rainbow is always after the storm, the infinite scenery in the dangerous peak!

  Moths that have not experienced the baptism of pain are fragile. Life without pain will be unbearable. It is because there is pain, so success is so beautiful and moving; because there are calamities, so joy is so delightful; because there is hunger, all the delicacies to make people feel so sweet. It is the existence of pain that can inspire our strength in life and make our will stronger. It is only when the melon is ripe that the water will fall. Like moths, people must grow through painful struggles until their wings are strong before they can fly high.

  If there is no suffering in life, we will be proud; with no setbacks, success is no longer joyful, not to mention the sense of achievement; no vicissitudes, we will not have compassion. Suffering is a necessary point on the road to growth, suffering is a touchstone to make people successful, and suffering is the spur of the rope to push people forward. Gratitude for suffering, not self-loathing. The old saying: "hardship and suffering, the jade is becoming." Only those who know how to be grateful for hardships can fight in difficulties, and strive and gradually move towards the road to success. Ostrovsky was wounded in a war, causing him to lose his eyesight and have paralysis. But it was under such difficult circumstances that he completed a long novel in the civilized world. What his success depended on was his courage to face hardships head-on and be grateful for them.

  Grateful for the suffering, should the more frustrated the more courageous. A truly strong person is not afraid of hardships. The famous Peking Opera artist Gai Yutian was a superb actor and strong-willed. He broke his left arm and his right leg during a performance, and he even broke the wrong bone when he had his bone removed. With his courageous spirit in the face of hardship, he finally forged his unique artistic style.

  "Suffering is the most valuable treasure in life". We should find the source of struggle in suffering, and be more and more courageous.

  Therefore, do not imagine that life is always so complete, and the seasons of life cannot be only spring. Everyone is destined to trudge through the ditches and hardships of life, taste bitterness, and hopelessness, to experience setbacks and disappointments. Pain is a lesson that must be experienced in life. In the long journey of life, suffering is not terrible, frustrated and no need to be sad. As long as the faith in your heart has not shrunk, your life journey will not be interrupted. Hardships and dangers are other forms of a gift from life to you, and potholes are also a refinement and test of your will - the sea will lose its majesty if it lacks raging waves; the desert will lose its grandeur if it lacks dancing sand; Venus will not be famous for its crippling beauty if it does not have a broken arm.

  Life would be as bland and tasteless as plain water if it were all smooth as two points and one line. Only sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and salty all five flavors are the whole of life.

  Therefore, you have to start now, smile in the face of life, do not complain that life has given you too many trials and tribulations, do not complain that life has too many twists and turns, and do not complain about the unfairness of life. The sky and the earth are vast, the world is small and far away, cover the volume when thinking, a few times things change. Suffering is the greatest wealth of life, suffering is the "raw material" for success. Through the years, only the words will not rust, only the idea of eternal brilliance. Pain is the process that life must go through!
