suffering is a wonderful opportunity a window that can give us a glimpse of possibilities but if and only if it is accompanied with awareness & intelligence. so in essence intelligence is a basic necessity.
Buddha signifies extreme intelligence in suffering. he can suffer for others & extrapolate their suffering upon himself without actually physically ever going through any of it.
Valmiki on the other hand embodies substantially high intelligence in suffering. one jolt of reality, that none of what he is doing has any significance & for those whom he is doing all this (his family)are not at all willing to share the burden of bad karma he is generating (by robbery & looting ) takes his suffering (brought about by dawning of this aforementioned reality) to a level of higher seeking
A person drowning him self in alcohol,seeking solace,or deeming himself as depressed and withdrawing from society exhibits lack of intelligence.
Hence suffering is like a check that can only be en cashed in the bank of intelligence.
