Chinese Tao

by Raimundo R., grade 8

What if  there was
no suffering?
Would we live life in a
never ending utopia?
As peaceful and calm as a quite lake.
Or would we live without any true happiness?
Stuck in a grey, emotionless hole.
Wherever I go I see problems.
We dedicate our lives to solving them.
Are these problems part of our lives?
Do these problems help us grow and be better?
Or would life be better without them?
One thing is true,
without suffering there is no paradise
