(I read this wise, beautiful quote on Facebook today. There so very often is an 'upside' to things.)

Jackie Chan responded to a journalist's question about whether he was satisfied with his life with these wise words:

"You know, I once heard some very wise words:
Your hard work is the dream of every unemployed person;
Your restless child is the dream of every childless person;
Your small home is the dream of every homeless person;
Your meager capital is the dream of every debtor;
Your ill health is the dream of every patient with an incurable disease;
Your peace, your sound sleep, your accessible food are the dream of every person in a country at war.
You must cherish everything you have. After all, no one knows what tomorrow will bring."
