If you ask me, moping and complaining about things not having gone the way you wanted them to will not make your life any better. Not on your end, and definitely not on anyone else's, unless the people you complain to are the kind of people who like listening to it! Now don't get me wrong; I understand people (myself included) need to vent, and in most cases I don't necessarily mind listening to an occasional rant from one or more of my friends, but I'm certainly not one of those people who enjoy listening to all that on a constant basis!
Sure; we all have bad days, and some people have them more often than others. In fact, if I talked about the emotions I feel on a regular basis, or (constantly) complained about something not going my way, or made sure the entire world had to know about anything else in my life that isn't exactly appealing, people would eventually get tired of it and take me for a "drama queen", or "the person who always bitches and whines", correct? I'm not trying to criticize anyone, and I'm definitely not saying this shouldn't apply to me as well as everyone else...all I'm trying to say is, that more than 90% of the times you feel like your life can't possibly get any worse, someone else (even someone you don't know) is in a much more complicated or devastating situation than what you are currently dealing with. So the next time your life seems to be at a stand-still, look on the bright side. Think of all the people in your life who actually care about you. Think about all the good things you have going for you, even if you don't have very much. Everyone needs to bitch occasionally, but when you do, don't forget about the positive aspects of your life, and don't take them for granted! For all you know, tomorrow, something terrible could happen; something bad enough to make all of your previous bad days seem like paradise...
