Summary

This quote conveys the idea that adversity and suffering are important aspects of life that contribute to our overall happiness and growth as individuals. It suggests that those who never experience any hardship or challenges in life may actually be the most unhappy, as they never have the opportunity to develop resilience, strength, and the ability to overcome obstacles. The quote implies that a life without any afflictions could be a stagnant and unfulfilling existence, as it denies us the chance to learn, evolve, and appreciate the positives in life.
