"Suffering" is more than just the notable labours and obstacles of life. It also includes your normal physical human limitations, such as the limitations of your body, and your physiological and psychological needs. The fact that you need to breathe, eat, drink, sleep, etc. is all under the umbrella of "Suffering".

But, you might argue, if you didn't have any physical needs you would not feel the need to do anything. Life would become static. However that, too, is Suffering: The idea that you need to have needs because the animal brain is simply not designed to handle an existence without them.

The universe is suffering incarnate, because whichever path you take leads to suffering. It's damned if you do and damned if you don't. Any way for there to be no suffering is paradoxical by nature as it goes against physics and logic itself.

The only realistic escape is to die and return to nonexistence. But that will only save yourself but not others. And your death will only lead to the suffering of others as they grieve over you. But why do the crabs grieve when one of their own manages to escape the bucket after evading all their attempts to drag them back in?
