The Root of Suffering in Life
Many people suffer daily because they haven't learned how to live life and haven't questioned the source of their suffering. Life is often seen as a cycle of working endlessly just to survive another day. This realization can be overwhelming, leading to a deep sense of despair. The speaker reflects on the intensity of this question that struck them at 16. They studied relentlessly for college entrance exams, only to realize that their future would be filled with endless work. They contemplated the plight of not only themselves but also individuals in poor or war-torn countries, and even throughout history, such as slaves. The speaker wonders why people choose to live despite the suffering they endure.
