For example if we never go through the pain of lifting weights at the gym we wouldn't experience the joy of feeling and looking good. If we don't take a job interview because we want to avoid the suffering of the application process we wouldn't feel the joy if we land the gig. So I think a life without suffering would be a life without joy.
