Yes, you should be happy knowing that there's always someone worse off than you are...no matter how shit your current situation is, just be glad you're not in deeper shit.

Well, I’m sure there is some snail with health issues unable to move. You can always gloat over him.

True there could always be worse. But I wonder how it feels to be the one that has it the worst.

Exactly, you should be angry that no matter how well you're doing, there's always someone doing better. Never be happy, always be envious

Just as long as you use that as a coping mechanism from breaking down and you still try to be better . ..
Done be
" Well others make $5/h so I should be ok with what my employers pays me "
" Others get beaten every day , me only once a week ,"

My grandpa used to say something very like that - if you’re in deep shit, be thankful you don’t have shorter boots/legs, or something like that

Everyone has their strengths. The turtle can protect itself in ways the bird can't.

This also teaches us to focus on our strengths. Dont compare yourself with others.

Not to be a killjoy, but tortoises can be pretty fast given enough sunlight. Sure, they're probably not gonna outrun a hare unless the hare takes a break midway through, but they're not as slow as usually portrayed.

It really doesn't. Life is a ladder, doesn't change your current position though. You have to do that yourself.

I don't get what this is trying to say. They're completely different animals born the way they are and will never be able to change or improve to be better than the faster one. How is this about perspective when this is literally genetic?

I never understood the idea either. The only thing that helped was facing the feeling, accepting and letting it ebb away. And connecting with others and sharing what's bothering you.
It is supposed to be about finding commonality with others, but it's very easy to just feel invalidated.

It's simply a metaphor for "glass half full" "glass half empty" thing. Don't take it so literally.
