Why is life so hard?
When God created life, He did not intend for it to be difficult. He placed man in a perfect environment, the Garden of Eden. He gave man all he needed not just to survive but also to thrive and lead a full, happy life. God met with man every day and they spoke together.

The problem arose when man disobeyed God. Read that story from the Old Testament Bible in the book of Genesis here.

What then is the answer for us? How can we get through this life, which is so hard?

The first thing that is needed is to be sure you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Life is already hard here on earth, but if you don`t know Jesus, it`s a lot harder. Knowing Him makes life lighter because He helps us get through difficult times. Jesus shares our load with us and bears our burdens with us. Read about that here.

Why is life so hard?
Because this is not heaven. If life was not hard we would be content and would not even look for God. We are being shown this. Just remember that Jesus died and then rose from the dead and has gone to prepare a place for us (those who have faith enough to belive in him). Read the verses in the bible about "the poor in spirit will see God " Not sure where in the bible that is just ask a pastor, he would know. Love to God and may life become easier.

Why is life so hard?
People of various religions have gone to their religious leaders and teachers to ask why there is so much suffering. Often, the response is that suffering is God’s will and that he long ago determined everything that would ever happen, including tragic events. Many are told that God’s ways are mysterious or that he brings death upon people—even children—so that he can have them in heaven with him. As you have learned, though, Jehovah God never causes what is bad. The Bible says: “Far be it from the true God to act wickedly, and the Almighty to act unjustly!”—Job 34:10. 6 Do you know why people make the mistake of blaming God for all the suffering in the world? In many cases, they blame Almighty God because they think that he is the real ruler of this world. They do not know a simple but important truth that the Bible teaches. You learned that truth in Chapter 3 of this book. The real ruler of this world is Satan the Devil. 7 The Bible clearly states: “The whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one.” (1 John 5:19) When you think about it, does that not make sense? This world reflects the personality of the invisible spirit creature who is “misleading the entire inhabited earth.” (Revelation 12:9) Satan is hateful, deceptive, and cruel. So the world, under his influence, is full of hatred, deceit, and cruelty. That is one reason why there is so much suffering. 8 A second reason why there is so much suffering is that, as discussed in Chapter 3, mankind has been imperfect and sinful ever since the rebellion in the garden of Eden. Sinful humans tend to struggle for dominance, and this results in wars, oppression, and suffering. (Ecclesiastes 4:1; 8:9) A third reason for suffering is “time and unforeseen occurrence.” (Ecclesiastes 9:11) In a world without Jehovah as a protective Ruler, people may suffer because they happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. 9 It is comforting for us to know that God does not cause suffering. He is not responsible for the wars, the crimes, the oppression, or even the natural disasters that cause people to suffer. Still, we need to know, Why does Jehovah allow all this suffering? If he is the Almighty, he has the power to stop it. Why, then, does he hold back? The loving God that we have come to know must have a good reason.—1 John 4:8.

Why is life so hard?
If we had it easy or even happiness everyday and every second of our lives what would we have to look forward too. Example Adam and Eve had it made in the beginning however, they made a mistake why because they did not know hardship. Now when we have a great day we are thankful and feel happy. Yes bad days do at times feel worse and many of, but the good days are wonderful. Thank God and love all parts of life good and bad.
