Complaints

Everyone has their fair share of things to complain about. And you know what, it is perfectly HEALTHY and even what I would define as GOOD FOR YOU to complain. But there's this catch about complaining:

As much as you need to do it, you have to do something ELSE as well, you need to work on it. If all you do is complain again and again, not only will people get tired of listening, but all you're doing is digging yourself a whole to fall in. The more you complain, the more excuses you give yourself, the worse listener you become, and the more depressed you become.

I mean, don't get me wrong, it is good to complain. It is NECESSARY. But the catch is that you need to DO something with your complaints- if you're upset that you said something mean to a friend, then go say SORRY to that friend. If you're complaining that your back hurts (ahem ahem) go tell your parents to (excuse the profanity) fucking shut up and take you to a doctor (even though I know you have tried, my friend). If you don't DO anything, then you're useless. If all you can do is complain, then you have failed yourself. That is the truth.

And as for complaining about things that you can't control, well, that's just ridiculous. That is plain dumb. That is not only inappropriate but detremental, because it is a worry/complaint that you can't fix, and therefore shouldn't worry about.

And I am not saying don't CARE. But there is a diffence between CARING and complaining/worrying.

So remember that.

If you want to complain, you have to be willing to take action to right the problem.
Otherwise, what is the use in complaining at all??

A little bitter, but true.
