Imagine them to be absent

 Plutarch - on  the tranquility of mind

How desirable is health to the sick

Peace for those In wars

Friends and acquisition of reputation,  to the unknown stranger in city

For then we realize

The importance of things we already possess

That we otherwise take for granted !

(Think this way and develop gratitude!!!)

We should sometimes look upon our possessions in the light in which they would appear if we had lost them

Schopenhauer: on relation to ourselves 

Dont spoil what's here

By longing for what's not here

Realize that

These too were things to be prayed for!

Epicurus , Vatican Sayings
