Two friends walked along the breakfast buffet, and when they reached the fruit section one said, "You never know about the fruit at a buffet. It could be good, or it could be aweful ... but usually it's pretty bad."
The other one said, "Well even if it tastes bad, it's still good for you. It's probably the healthiest thing here."
When they sat down to eat, the first one said, "Just as I thought, this fruit is terrible. The apple slices are mealy, the melons are hard, and the strawberries are too tart. I don't know why I bothered."
Then the other one said, "This orange is OK, and the watermelon is pretty good, and these strawberries are fine. And besides, it's good for you."
And of course they both were right - and not because fruit is a state of mind. There is good fruit and bad fruit in every buffet line, and some folks know how to tell the difference. And so it is in life. We all face the same decisions, and some people make better choices than others ... and they live better lives because of it.
