Moment of Zen

The Master was in a mellow mood and the disciples were inquisitive. Did he ever feel depressed? they asked.

He did.

Wasn't it also true that he was in a continual state of happiness? they persisted.

It was.

What was the secret? they wanted to know.

Said the Master, "This: Everything is as good or as bad as one's opinion makes it."
