I think the message here is big, though: that life is worth living no matter how much suffering you go through.

Kuma's life was Hell, but it also touched everyone. And if you asked him, he was definitely grateful to have lived.

Yeah. Oda is very good at this. The scene where he said to Bonney “thank you for being born” and also before this, the “I want to live” Robin scene. Oda wants to show that just by existing can brings happiness to yourself and other people.
