NOTE

Embrace Suffering and Live Fully

Suffering is inevitable in life, and it's essential to embrace it rather than seek constant pleasure. Being fully alive involves grappling with challenges and remaining unfazed by hardships. Victor Frankl's experiences show that finding purpose and meaning can lead to happiness despite adversities.
