I think it's part of the human experience/condition...the yin and yang of life, so to speak. In Zen Buddhism, I recall a quote...''getting hurt is inevitable, but suffering is a choice.'' Guess it sort of points to the idea that your life isn't the sum total of your circumstances but rather how you view them?
