Clinton - you can have a moment of down-ness if you like. Just because other people have things worse doesn't mean you can't be sad. Same as the fact that other people have things better shouldn't stop anyone being happy.
Sometimes you just need to get the negative feelings through your head & off your chest so that you can move on & see the bright side later on.
So have a little wallow & then cheer up & give the wife a big hug (even if she is asleep..)

Hope your seeing a happier perspective soon.
