I forgot to add – THANK YOU Andrew, for this wonderful blog post, your form of directness and for changing the negative moods from my own complaints and that of others.

i would like to say thank you to the person who wrote the article about complaining. i unfortunately am a huge complainer. i would like to explain myself but in doing so i would be complaining. this article helped me see what an annoying person i could truly be, just because of my complaining. i agree with the fact that i would have nothing to talk about if i was not complaining about something. i never realized how my complaining affected other people and for that i am sorry. i don’t want to be this way and i know the only way to stop this complaining is to change whatever it is that is bothering me. I think i am more motivated now to change things now that i have read this. I don’t want people to dislike me or not enjoy my company and reading this showed me that the people who tolerate my complaining have alot of patience and i see now that these people are growing tired of my complaining. I will do everything in my power to change myself and my situations instead of complaining. thank you to the author

I referred to you in a public speech I made earlier this evening. To protect your privacy, I didn’t use your name. I gave an inspirational speech and explained how a man who survived brain cancer was making great strides in learning what reasons he has to feel grateful where he is. I brought up the Chuck Norris story I relayed to you in a previous response to one of your blogs. I expanded by discussing how an understanding of health and knowledge of illness can become opportunities to learn to love yourself and others. I also explored how and why some people indulge in moderation, focusing on where they are not and then learn to break this destructive habit. Kudos to your progress. You’ve really come a long way!
