There is a famous idiom in English that says: What can't be cured must be endured

    Robert Burton, The Anatomy of Melancholy

 If you cannot do anything about a problem, you will have to live with it.

 One must simply learn to live with that which one is not able to resolve or improve. A: "I'm just really sick of working in this job, but there are just no other suitable job prospects in this part of the country." B: "Well, then, it sounds like you need to just suck it up. What can't be cured must be endured."
