	There are 2 sentences:  "The pain is difficult for one endure" and
"The situation is difficult while I'm enduring  the pain".

	Their subjects are completly different and their meaning too.
In the first sentence, there is difficulty for everyone and in the second, only
for me.  Okay .. not the main idea, but their meaning is.
