Many might be jealous you got selected for an H1B visa.

Moral of the story - if its bad for you, its always worse for someone else. Not something that may make you feel better, but its important to try not to lose some perspective.

Agreed. I always try to keep things in perspective. Most problems I end up complaining about are really first world problems. The thing is I remember growing poor in a different country, so I should know better. But after all this years I find myself complaining my internet is slow, my water heater doesn't heat enough water, I had to wait in line getting a plane etc. My younger poor self would slap me on the head and laugh at me for complaining.
