It's the "again" that got me. Nature tried to go for the throat, yet failed to put an end to the threat to life on earth known as humanity, but it appears Nature has decided to test a new method.

to love is to suffer.
To avoid suffering, one must not love.
But then one suffers from not loving
Therefore, to love is to suffer.
Not to love is to suffer.
To suffer is to suffer.

To be happy is to love.
To be happy, then, is to suffer,
but suffering makes one unhappy.
Therefore, to be unhappy one must love,
or love to suffer,
or suffer from too much happiness...

I hope you're getting this down.
