Where does auden feel that suffering usually take place

In W. H. Auden's poem by the name of Musée des Beaux Arts, suffering appears as a crucial major theme. The poet suggests that suffering is most prominently felt when one's going about their normal routine, doing everyday things like walking or eating. She also speaks of moments of indifference when suffering strikes, and the apathy of others who just carry on with their usual routine as if nothing's happening.

The following excerpt from the poem paints the picture pretty clearly:

“About the suffering they were never wrong, the old masters: how well they understood its human position; how it takes place while someone else is eating or opening a window or just walking dully along.”
