Why complain?

This is what the weather has been like this week.
Today it should have been somewhat sunny according to the forecast, but no, still foggy. So, instead of going on a small picnic somewhere, I got a nice headache due to tension in my neck, and the massage at the gymn made it even worse.
On my way home I wanted to cheer myself up by buying some sweets, or other treat, just because I felt so lousy, but I didn't crave anything really.

Then, when I got home, my family reminded me how good life really is...

I have an adorable daughter and a precious wife, who both were at home to greet me.
I have my ever loving and supporting parents no further than 15 minutes away by car.
I got a really delicious lunch that boosted my energy back to a normal level. Something I am spoiled with every day, thanks to my wife being a great cook, though not realising it herself.
I have a job. Even better, I have a job I like and my co-workers and boss are great.
I live in a new house, in a nice neighbourhood, with great neighbours.
I've got a good, reliable, fast car (a generous gift from my parents), that never fails us.

I realised, that despite the headache I have, there is so much (immaterial and material) that makes me a lucky man, that I could just ignore the pain and focus on other things. Things that one often take for granted. And that, one should really not do.
