Gautama Buddha Quotes
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
