I agree, and in my opinion that is how we are tested here. It's a cold, cruel world sometimes because we are mortals. We have to live with not only our own decisions, but the decisions of others affect us as well. Throw in health problems and natural disasters, accidents etc... and you've got all the tests anyone would need over a lifespan.
