  Life is difficult.

  It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it,then life is no longer difficult.

  Most do not fully see this truth.Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy.It seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families,their class,or even their nations.

  What makes life difficu .It is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one.

  Problems.depending on their natures,cause US sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear.

  These are uncomfortable feelings,often as painful as any kind of physical pain.And since life can-ses endless serious problems,life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.Yes,it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning.Problems are the serious tests that tell us success from failure.When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit,we encourage the human ability to solve problems,just as in school we set problems for our children to resolve.It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn As Benjamin Franklin said.“Those things that hurt,instruct.’’It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.

  生活是很艰难的。

  一旦我们了解并接受了它,生活就变得不再那么难了,这是一个伟大的现实。但是很多人不能完全明白这个事实。相反,他们总是抱怨他们的问题和困难,好像生活应该是容易的。对他们来说,那些苦难代表了一种强加给他们的或是他们家人、朋友甚至国家的磨难。

  面对和解决苦难的过程是痛苦的,这就让生活变得艰难了。那些问题,由于本质不同,带给我们悲伤、孤独、遗憾、愤怒或是害怕。这些令人难受的感觉,总是像那些肉体的疼痛一样带给我们伤害。既然生活总要有无止境的严重问题要处理,生活于是就变得艰难,充满了欢喜也有痛苦。

  是的,就是在这个解决问题的过程中,生活变得有意义了。那些问题是严肃的考验,从中我们知道失败是成功之母。我们鼓励人性的成长的同时,就是鼓励人们提高解决问题的能力,就像我们在学校里设置问题让学生们解决一样。正是在这些面对并解决问题的痛苦中,我们学习。本杰明·富兰克林说过:“那些事情痛苦,但是有教育意义。”就是基于此,聪明的人学着不再惧怕困难,而是去迎接解决问题的苦难。
