It is very easy to get into a situation where you are feel you have things bad, worst than anyone else, but I am afraid this is true because there is always worst of than you if you indeed wish to see your life in that way. I feel it is much better to appreciate what we have as opposed to complain about what we do have as the positives will always weight out the negatives.

Attitude is everything and I strongly believe that with the right attitude that anything can be achieved in one way or another. Your attitude will determine whether you have a good life or choose to live in self-pity and misery with your self-fulfilling tales of woe and you also have the ability to make someone’s else, indeed many people’s, lives happier!
