Ineed reasons for and against as to why all life is/is not suffering (about buddhism and i need to link in buddhist beliefs such as the 4 noble truths) x

1. All life is suffering because it will come to an end (the noble truth that all good things will end because they are immaterial).

2. Countering that, not all life is suffering because we can make the most of it and whilst we are happy, we are not suffering.

3. People may argue that that is not true happiness. True happiness is reaching Moksha.

4. Living in the present is a philosophy used by many, why worry about the happiness ending. That in itself is suffering.

5. It could then be argued that if worrying about suffering is what people do, then life is suffering.

close reading is a skill that requires students to determine purpose and notice features and language used by the author so that they can think thoughtfully and methodically about the details in the text and why they were used.

hope this works!
