Human nature, and the world we live in, is imperfect. This means that to live, we must suffer. Both physical pain (illness, injury, old age and death) and psychological pain (disappointment, fear, frustration and depression) are inevitabe, because our existence is imperfect.
Yes, there are different levels of sufferring as well as positive experiences (comfort and happiness), but life on the whole is imperfect. Life is imperfect because it is impermanent. Although we may encounter happy moments, all of these moments must pass, and ultimately we will all die, and these moments wil be lost. This leads to sufferring.
Life means sufferring.
