A quote for the day:

"When we are happy, we are less self-focused. We like others more. and we want to share our good fortune even with strangers. When we are down, though, we become distrustful, turn inward, and focus defensively on our own needs. Looking out for number one is more characteristic of sadness than of well-being." --- Martin E. P. Seligman in "Authentic Happiness"
