Making the Best of Things

There is scarcely any one who does not think but that he has been unjustly dealt with, in some respects, either by nature or by fortune. What is to be done? If these individual imperfections can be remedied, let us strive in every legitimate way to help ourselves. If not, why not make the best of them?
It is not so much our own actual condition of life that breeds happiness as the use which we make of our opportunities. Some people will be cheery and useful anywhere, and under any livable conditions. Others are correspondingly dismal. Therefore, as a matter of self-convenience at least, let us make the best of things.—Selected.
