Very true! I've never heard of anyone who has been able to avoid some pain in life.

You pretty much answered this one with the above statement "pain is a natural consequence of life."
If someone were to claim they don't feel pain they could be numb or in a state of shock which is temporary. Shock even numbs physical pain.
We're human and are therefore born with physical and emotional vulnerabilities. Our challenge in life is to grow, develop and overcome.
Barring any mental disorder or illness we all feel of some kind of pain in our lives.
