Life isn't suffering for all of us. Suffering is perhaps the most common translation for the Sanskrit word duhkha, which can also be translated as imperfect, stressful, or filled with anguish. I prefer "imperfect"- because life is clearly not all suffering- there is intense pleasure and pain- but there is always anxiety, and stress- because things change. Suffering or pleasure is always right around the corner (especially in our imaginations) and that is how I translate duhkha.
