Zach Braff, the much-loved and very witty star of Scrubs, Garden State and Chicken Little, certainly agrees. Although his cheery message of a Monday morn was slightly more 'out there' than a mere picture of a sunrise, or a cheeky little minion or two.
The 41-year-old was keen to share a story he had just happened across by way of a count-your-blessings sentiment. Some of you may be aware of it from a few years ago - if you're not then you're in for treat. It refers to a dead Gordon Ramsey 'sex dwarf'.

Yep, you read that right. Braff shared the rather startling headline 'GORDON RAMSAY'S DWARF PORN STAR LOOKALIKE FOUND DEAD IN BADGER DEN HALF EATEN' to a story from September 2011. He added: 'If you're having a shitty day, this is a real headline and it wasn't you.'
Food for thought, for sure.
Unfortunately/fortunately, the headline may have been real, but it was from the Sunday Sport, who are famous for their tongue-in-cheek faux splashes. For example...
Ouch.
It didn't stop Braff's 1.5 million followers reacting to the imagined death of the randy vertically-challenged chef lookalike with shock and dismay...

It must be stressed that no dwarves, chefs, badgers or medical students were harmed in this article.
