Good-Luck or Bad-Luck
In a village, a poor old farmer had a lame son. Everyone in the village called that boy unlucky.One day, king's army came to the village, and took all the strong young boys to be soldiers for the emperor. Only the old farmer's lame son was spared, because he could not fight with a broken leg. Everyone said, “What a good luck!” The old farmer replied, “Good luck?, bad luck?, who knows?”
So, don't pride on your good-luck and don't grieve over your bad-luck.

There may be some exceptions.
it is quite possible to be some variation in between parents and children from place to place and country to country.
for example:
When you compare yourself with someone better than you, you find yourself in a bad condition and when you compare yourself with someone worse than you, you find yourself in a good condition.
