I believe it all depends on the perspective you (decide to) ‘paint’.
‘Life sucks’ is a subjective term, and you decide what you believe. Things do appear different if viewed from another angle.

I read an interesting story about a man dying in pain from asbestosis. But he was in awe of asbestos, because it saved his life some 20 years ago. So those 20 years were a gift.

Also, like Gary Vaynerchuk’s quote on building the biggest building in town (not by taering other building down): it actually doesn’t have anything to do with others, you focus on yourself and live your vision, becoming the best you can be.

Thanks for the reply.
