A place that must be endured

This piece highlights an unpleasant place or a difficult situation that people suddenly find themselves unplanned for or challenging that cannot be avoided or easily escaped from. A place that requires one to summon their strength, resilience, and patience to endure through the experience. This may refer to a situation or circumstance that is emotionally taxing, such as a difficult job, a dysfunctional relationship, or a challenging period in one's life. In short, "a place that must be endured" is a place that is endured out of necessity rather than choice.
