Complaining is a common human 'sport' so you, too, are not immune. You complain because you didn’t get a raise, because the car broke down, because your child got a D in a test, because you cut a finger while chopping vegetables, because your partner doesn’t agree with your point of view. They are unpleasant situations all right, but not to the extent of making you angry, upset, of making you curse or start a fight. Do you ever think about how lucky you are just because you are here, able to lead a decent life, speak up your mind, interact with others, go out for a walk, read a magazine, enjoy your coffee? Little things – yes, they certainly are – but they become 'big' if you think of those who don’t have them. And…you know what? It’s highly possible that some people who don’t have them are happier that you. Why? Because they complain less and appreciate more.
