Loneliness of Suffering


The photo I added here, somebody published it in Facebook recently. The idea of the loneliness was so intence that I saved it in my pc. Sometimes, specially after this summer when we had many nestlings and many -MANY!- of them died in terrible sufferings, naturally, and we could do nothing for them but we could not kill them to free them, too... So, after this terrible summer, you know, I do not understand the Creator whoever He is. 

I do not understand the sense of so many sufferings in all this world. I understand that it's how the things work. I understand that everything what is born will be buried. But was it impossible to create it in such way that the poor alive being can die suddenly, without suffering??????

Ohhh yes, I know that it's stupid that I ask this question. I know. It is so... but...
WHYYYY????? GOD!!!! WHY?...

And than, this morning, this other photo...
It was in 1963, I can't remember it because i was too little at that time. But I remember the photo -probably, I've seen it later, when I was just big enough. 
This time it was in Facebook, too. And here is the comment 

On June 11, 1963, Thich Quang Duc, a Buddhist monk from Vietnam, burned himself to death at a busy intersection in Saigon as a protest against repressive policies of the Catholic Diem regime. Buddhist monks asked the regime to lift its ban on flying the traditional Buddhist flag, to grant Buddhism the same rights as Catholicism, to stop detaining Buddhists and to give Buddhist monks and nuns the right to practice and spread their religion.

While burning, the monk Thich Quang Duc showed no signs of discomfort, pain or fear. He was at peace. It is said he was not intoxicated at the time.

...And all those persons looked at him...

Oh no, I have not doubts: Life is surely a great error of the Creator. I can't suppose He can enjoy all these amount of suffering...
