There is a Chinese sayings "zhi chu chang le" which means be content with what you have and you will be happy.
Count your blessings everyday and give thanks for being able to walk, breathe freely, see and hear the world while others may be crippled, blind or disabled.
Be grateful for the abundance of food available such that I never have to starved while people dies of hunger in this world everyday.
Be grateful for the plentiful of clothes to chose from and a warm cozy house to live in while others are homeless and sleeping out in the harsh cold weather in their thread bared clothes, with their newspapers and cardboards, falling preys to thieves and suffering from cold through the night.
Be glad to know my loved ones are well and with me, instead of missing or gone forever.
Life can be such a pain sometimes, so let's not further indulge in self misery.
