Re: Think about this...

I've seen that before, good one.

I also like this quote by Melody Beattie: “Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.”

That is what I have always said, wherever you look someone is worse off than you so just get on with living and stop moaning.
