The idiomatic expression "a bed of roses" refers to something that is beautiful, pleasant, or comfortable. In many ancient cultures, rose petals were strewn in the path of an important person, to show their high status and to show affection for them. While life can indeed have good days or good times, it also has problems and struggles and sadness. We cannot realistically expect that everything will always be beautiful and pleasant, even though we might wish it to be. Thus, we cannot honestly say life is a bed of roses.
Not all thorns have roses (example: briar bushes) and just because a rose bush has thorns does not mean it has roses. So the premise of this is illogical. You cannot depend on thorns to assume you'll find or see roses, that roses will ever be found or seen, or whether you're looking at a rose bush at all. The only logical answer, then, is to rejoice that we have gloves to hold a rose stem and snippers to cut off its thorns if present. But we also must appreciate that thorns serve a protective function for the roses we enjoy. For example, a deer's nose is awfully sensitive--when it comes to nosh (eat) a rosebud, its nose will get pricked by thorns so it learns to leave roses alone.
