The earth plane is a suffering plane, so, no matter where you dwell in, you're bound to be influenced by life's boxes of chocolates--so says famous life-scientist, holy Buddha. However, suffering could be mitigated or even completely dispelled by having a clean understanding of life's up and down, its change of colors like change of seasons, its perpetual flow akin to a river, and  by having a good,fine balance in the middle of pulsating, chaotic Universe.
