I'm not saying everything is perfect, but today as thousands of years in the past life has never been ideal, humanity is constantly evolving, suffering are but steps on the ladder. Look at the entire happening from a higher perspective, looked from high enough things begin to lose their value, nobody cries for the ant which has died, and nobody cries for your suffering here on earth.
Not because they are cruel but because its all in your own mind.
This imagery of people fighting snakes is not a symbol of an external fight, it symbolises the internal struggle that every man must endure and conquer, through suffering alone we are moved to become better, until we have learned our lesson we shall suffer. Suffering tells the child not to touch the hot plate, and it tells you which thoughts to think and which actions to take, there is no luck in the life one leads, all the universe is justly governed, not one speck of dust is out of place, however it is your own mind which is hostile to itself and its surroundings, it drowns in delusions of its own making until you are unable to see clearly from a point of no attachment.
Come out of hell.
