"Suffering is the growing pains of the soul" ...I think we create the struggle/challenges in life so we may learn from them. I don't think the lack of it makes life boring though...A fern plant once told me we are just like them...they spring from the ground fully formed all folded up and they must only unfurl themselves to the world...the fern told me people are like this in that we are born with everything we need and our life is the dance or unfurling of our layers...You are complete....the "struggle" is just us trying to achieve the goals and ambitions of our mind and the stories it tells us (which are endless)....Difficulties and challenge are always good and I agree keep life interesting...but its always important to remember you are already whole and always have been....Thanks for sharing...Much Love
