Thank you, dear @bleujay, for your visit, for reading my presentation, and for your comprehensive commentary. :D

I couldn't agree more with all you've said. As Moses has related the LORD's words to us,

"Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’:
 
 “Cursed is the ground for your sake;
 In toil you shall eat of it
 All the days of your life."
- Genesis 3:17

I've always understood that God pronounced the curse for our ultimate good. As you've stated,

"If life here on earth was pain and suffering free.....would man ever look up?"

And so, yes indeed, I agree that the curse, pain and suffering, and all evil that impinges upon us, will ultimately be turned to our greatest good by our Great God and Savior, Jesus.

"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose."
- Romans 8:28
"For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us."
- Romans 8:18

Thank you again for your visit! :D
