This is one of the core Buddhist teachings.
All existence is impermanent, impersonal, and unsatisfactory.
Impermanence, I think the idea is self-explanatory, nothing lasts for ever, there is beginning, lifespan, and an end to every phenomenon physical or mental. No thing, no felling etc lasts for ever. This is not hard to grasp.
Impersonal, known aldo as selfless, the idea of no permanent entity being a part of a being, just a bunch of interdependent, existing because of underlying causes processes. All that you see in the mirror has no enduring, unchanging part to it, physical, mental, or spiritual. No soul.
Unsatisfactory, this is pretty easy to understand, no matter how pleasant, beautiful anything is we get tired of it eventually. Nothing changing can be satisfying for ever.
Nothing compound is free from those three conditions of existence.
It's time for you guys to get educated.
