The Trouble of Constant Complaints
A Lehmann’s Opinion
Have you met or known anyone that is a constant complainer?
First of all, you try to be nice and listen intently on what the person is complaining about but after a few minutes, you begin to wonder if the person has anything nice to say about anything. You begin to wonder if they complain because they don’t want to change their own lives. They like living in misery and they want you to feel the same way. Maybe they complain because they want someone to solve their problems. Or, they dislike what they do in life.
For example, Prince Harry. Now, this is a man who gave up his royal status to move to the United States to have more privacy with his wife and children. He wanted nothing to do with paparazzi and their constant reporting of him and his family. But, look what has happened. He is constantly complaining about the way his family treated him and his wife, he has written a tell-all book about his life (recently stating that his brother physically attacked him), he is giving interviews right and left. He is a complainer and we, the American people, have to listen to it constantly on the daily news. Who cares? Most Americans are so busy with their own lives and making a living, we don’t have the time to listen to Prince Harry’s ravings.
Another example is Fox News. If you watch the news show, Hannity, you begin to wonder if Sean Hannity ever has anything nice to say about the United States government. Sure, our country has issues; cities are now filled with violence, inflation is at an all time high, COVID is still prevalent, and the crisis at our borders continues to increase, to name a few. But the man goes on and on about a problem and he grills his guests until he gets an answer. If you want to learn how to truly complain and argue, watch Sean Hannity on Fox News.
Complainers can ruin a good day, that’s for sure. They find fault with every little thing and they want you to feel just as low as they do. Many of us distance ourselves from these types of people. They are crybabies, bellyachers, whiners, etc. In this New Year, work on saying at least one positive thing every single day. Compliment someone on what they are wearing or the work they do. Also, you can tell someone they are sweet, very creative and talented. In 2023, don’t be a complainer, be a positive uplifting person.
