You may think that life should be a bed of roses, but if that's your take on life, you're in for a big surprise! The issue is not if you will face trials, it's how you will respond to the inevitable problems of life. You may choose to take matters into your own hands by becoming bitter and angry with God or anyone else or, you can submit to the trial and let God do His work with the confidence that He will not waste your sorrows and that in the end, "all things work together for good" - It's your choice. But believe me, the pain is worth the gain.
