Jasna Soptrajanova Vrteva [1] posted this message on her Facebook profile [MKD]: “When tempted to envy someone – they've a charmed life, they have it so easy … and they're always cheerful, joyful, smiling, in high spirits … – stop and think: they might have a charmed life because they work very hard.

On Twitter, it took the form of this image [2] [MKD].
