If you can start the day without caffeine;
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains;
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles;
If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it;
If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time;
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment;
If you can conquer tension without medical help;
If you can relax without alcohol and sleep without the aid of drugs...
Then you are probably the family dog!
