    “Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.” ― Epicurus It’s often easy to feel frustrated and complain when things don’t go the way you expected to be, rather than see the good in each experience. AND it probably does not help when someone adds in the classic expression, “Well…look at the bright side”. We have all probably been on both sides of this situation one way or another.
