Suffering is caused when you have a very strong (emotional) response to a happening.
When your response to a particular event is very intense, it causes a constant replay of the event and your response in the mind. This depletes you of energy and promotes suffering and misery.
To relieve yourself of this cycle, it is best not to respond too strongly to any given event, most of which are anyway beyond your conscious control.
Learn instead to let go of your need to respond intensely to any happening.
Calmness of mind itself is most valuable. Calmness is when you no longer respond to events with intensity.
