27、 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 difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their natures, cause us sadness o

And since life causes 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

29、 meaning. Problems are the serious tests that tell us success from failure.
