Yes and no. Resistance and overcoming obstacles is what builds strength.
>build physical strength by moving increasingly heavy masses - lifting weights
>build intellectual strength by solving increasingly complex/lateral puzzles
>build determination by maintaining steady schedule through increasingly austere situations
But if you try to do too much too quickly, you dont get a building of strength, but a destruction of what currently is.

Your reaction to suffering can build character.
It can make you stronger, more mature, more wise.
Or it can make you bitter, resentful, even evil.

Life is suffering. To find meaning in the suffering is to build character.

What kind of character does suffering build? Are people who haven't suffered automatically worse off than people that have? What's the deal with this misanthropic mindset? If I could have chosen not to suffer, I would have chosen that, and I really don't think I would have been worse off in any way whatsoever. In fact, I think I might have been better off. Most people don't have to go through half of the bullshit I went through, there's no merit to suffering. Why do some people think suffering is good? I've just completely shut the world off from myself because I couldn't cope with life. It didn't build any kind of character, it just made me numb. I guess people react differently to whatever life decides to throw at them, but I really don't have any type of belief that people who suffer are better people in some way.

Suffering helps build coping mechanisms
The greater the suffering, the more ample the cope
That's why we are subjected to the limits of Suffering on this earth, so that the coping will also be at the limit: reaching for God. Without suffering, we literally wouldn't even reach for God ever.

Is this some type of suffering competition where the people that suffer the most are given something for suffering? You're welcome to win the suffering competition, I don't want to compete in that. In the end it doesn't even matter who suffers and who don't, literally nobody gives a shit. You wake up each morning and eat breakfast and go to work just like everyone else. I'll admit that there might exist people who maybe are somewhat sheltered, but it doesn't define the entire person to me. If I were to choose between suffering and not suffering, I'd choose not suffering any day of the week. Do I get upset that people have it better than me? Nope, I don't give a shit. And neither should anyone else.

No, you're right, suffering doesn't build character.

What does build character are the choices you decide to make for yourself through your own free will who you'll decide to become as a person in the face of suffering, and thus what ultimately builds character is none other than yourself. So, anons, don't let suffering and fate define who you are, instead become the person who you're truly supposed to be by reaching out and taking it for yourself, because it's your choice to make after all is said and done, and no one or thing in this entire world can make that decision for you. Good luck, and godspeed everyone. And thanks too. See you guys later

Evil exists in the world in order to generate connection-building.

https://benthams.substack.com/p/why-theres-evil

>Perhaps struggling through an indifferent world, not being micromanaged by God, is uniquely valuable for soul-building. Just going through a narrowly tailored set of challenges doesn’t give one the knowledge that they can overcome hardships in the same way that overcoming a random suite of challenges does. The benefits of soul-building, as of the other benefits on this list, last forever.

>Perhaps being in an indifferent world builds our connections with others. An indifferent world might do this in at least three ways, relative to one where God intervenes. First, the fact that our lives have some element of randomness, where everything isn’t set by God makes it so that our relationships may be more valuable. God designing the world specifically to be such that specific people form maximally valuable relationships might rob the relationships of some of their value, in a way akin to arranged marriage. Second, as Robin Collins notes, going through hardships together, helping people out through hardship, and forgiving others through wrongdoing strengthens people’s relationships. An indifferent universe offers the chance for all of this. Finally, were we to be in a relationship with God, it might be infinitely more intense and thus crowd out our other relationships. Thus, just as there might be something valuable about a person making close friends before they get married, because a marriage crowds out their friend-making ability, the same might be true of us and God. This also seems to preclude God specifically intervening to maximize connection building. This is worth all the world’s evils, because the value of relationships lasts forever into the afterlife.

Idealism and compassion is almost always a child's trait. They get stripped away by suffering, until one day you don't even recognise yourself anymore. Suffering builds character like a hurricane builds a tree. Some lucky tree will survive the hurricane of suffering if its roots are strong enough.

It not exactly the struggle or sufferering that builds your character, but the thoughts and wisdom you have to apply to overcome it and thrive.
A person that went through the worst will handle himself easily during good or "normal" times.

Absolute NPC mentality. You are assuming everyone is a blank slate. They're not. Some people are born to this hellscape only to suffer, with no opportunity to even reflect upon it. Of course if I was to give some examples (trafficked children bought and sold like animals, people who get ordnance dropped on their heads without even knowing they're at war, etc) you'd go "oh not like that, that's like, super rare" or "that doesn't happen". The way you fucking creatures can reconcile the events of the world we live in is beyond my comprehension. Someone can rape you, and tell you they're not, and you somehow believe it.

Yeah I think the problem stems primarily in that its used as a crutch or as a definitive rule where if they feel it hasnt happened they way they expected it then they feel as though whatever you say or your person is incomplete or unrefined if it doesnt go through that specific flavor of 'muh suffering'.
They also seem to not acknowledge silent and internal suffering that people do not express or dont have a platform to express since they dont have an audience paying attention to it, maybe because they werent fully paying attention to your life to know.
