Yitzhak was not the kind of person you would expect any sympathy from. Whenever something bad happened to anyone, he would always shrug his shoulders and say, "Well, look on the bright side - it could have been worse."
One day, something terrible happened to the married couple living next door to Yitzhak - the husband came home early from work and caught his wife in bed with another man, so he shot both his wife and her lover, then killed himself.
Soon, crowds began to gather in the street and many were in a state of shock. But as usual, Yitzhak shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, look on the bright side - it could have been worse."
They all recoiled in horror. "Don't be so stupid," they told him, "how on earth could it have been any worse?"
Yitzhak replied, "Well, if the husband had come home early yesterday instead of today, I would be dead now."
