Well, I guess it's all in your attitude.....but what I was thinking about
when I made the comment was the Buddhist (?) saying that all life is
suffering. I never grokked that so I would change it and say life *has*
suffering, kind of reflecting Gangaji's statement.

But, as Dean (I think) described his experience, I got in touch with the
idea that simply entering into an earthly existence is suffering. We don't
necessarily know that we suffer. We foolishly go about filling our plates
with the junk
food of life, never even realizing that we are depriving ourselves of
essential nourishment. Does that make sense?

P.S. I really liked that article on boredom. It came at just the right
time!
