What are some lies we tell ourselves to feel better?

Not lies per se, but lines that hold some kind of truth we can take solace in:

-"The grass is always greener on the other side" don't worry, others envy you. And the people you idolise don't have it as good as you think.
-"You can't buy happiness" it's okay you're poor. Wealth won't make you happier.
-"What will be will be" don't try fighting fate, it's out of your control. Just let it happen.

And the general belief in karma- that people who do bad things will get what they deserve. Whether it's true or not, it keeps us calm

"I tried my best"

I feel like we all said it knowing we could've done better... It wasn't until my friend said "Did you?" and I woke up from my comfort zone.

102 is not a big body count. Lots of people have bigger ones.
