Complains

Recently a lot of disruptive issues happened at work. It made me feel very bad about my efficiency and could not really help but start to get grumpy and complaining about every single thing that did not go the way it was supposed to.

Really, complaining to anybody, including colleagues and friends or family is not a bad thing. I feel that after complaining, it actually takes away the stress that stores up inside the heart and make yourself feel better. In fact, after complaining, I will always feel relieved and that a load is lighten; ready to face the next challenge that comes along.

However, complaining too often and turning myself into a grumpy old woman is not a good thing at all. Unfortunately, because of the need to de-stress myself, more often than not, I feel that I am complaining too much, telling the same story to different people over and over again. The results? Instead of feeling relieved after complaining, I get even more angry and started getting more grumpy. It becomes a bad cycle that the more you complained, the more angry you feel and the more grumpy you get with more complaining...

Maybe, I should just stop. Take a deep breath and sleep early to start saving energy to face the next day, instead of reflecting too much on the bad things that have happened today.

We look forward to tomorrow, thinking that it will never be worse than today.
We look forward to tomorrow, thinking that today is not the worst day of your life.
