When Life Gets You Down

I need to vent here for a moment, so hold tight. Quit complaining people! And this goes for myself included. If you are unhappy with something, rather than stand around complaining, whining,  moping, do something. You are the controller of your destiny. I'm not saying we don't all  have the occasional bad day, unhappy thought, I'm talking about the constant moper. The person who always seems unhappy about (insert complaint of the day). If you hate your job, look for something new, if you hate your weight, get moving, eat healthy, if you hate your relationship, say something, or look at yourself and see if you are the cause of the unhappiness.

My point is, standing around discussing the same problem or issues day after day does nothing but make you more depressed and annoys me your friends. I admit I do have done this more than once. I found myself doing it just yesterday. And then I looked backed over the series of texts and thought, wow I sound depressing. But the thing is I have done nothing to change the situation I was "depressed" about. You can only move mountains if you actually stand next to the sucker and push.

Perhaps this is more than a vent and more self-reflection. Happiness is created. So, I guess I should get to moving and creating insteading of griping. Happy Tuesday everyone!

  1. Well said girl, well said. It is the worst to hear people, myself included, complain about the SAME THING!

    I agree, do something about it or stop talking about it.

    Happy Tuesday!

  2. THANK YOU. Honestly, this couldn't be more true today... I'm sitting here silently fuming about my paralegal who drives me up the wall. I get a good mood out of her maybe once every week or two? She's miserable. And I'm constantly wondering why she doesn't look for another job if she's so unhappy. But at the same time, I let her get to me. And I let her control my moods. I go home venting night after night and it's getting old. I really need to learn to just leave it behind. Especially since there's really nothing I can do about it. =/

  4. Great inspiring post, sometimes it is so hard to quit complaining but you are so right, we need to move on or do something right away.

  5. You are so right about everything. That is why I started my blog... kind of. I tend to get totally depressed for days about something. My husband says to me often that he thinks I am someone that can never be happy. But I am happy! I just need to, like, wake up and realize it sometimes when I forget. And if we aren't happy, there is always something that can be done on our own parts to change a least a little bit about our situation. I hope you are doing something about your sitch, lady! I want you to be happy!
