last night I was playing cards, A guy kept complaining when he took a bad beat. There was this old Chinese guy who said to him "you see me, you gave me a bad beat 4 times, but I never complained, you shame yourself when you complain." I was thats true, and will always remember that. There's no excuse for like complaing unless you got really got something to b itch about. What is there to complain about when we know people have it much worse, how can you please God complaining about trivial krap all the time? I hope I always remmeber this- What you think?

I think I can talk to God about anything, no matter how trivial.

I am sure that I learn more than one thing every day. But I don't always recognize what I learn. That takes some effort. People complain because they are people. But I do think it is good to be grateful. And compassionate. We all suffer and therefore we all have something to complain about, but having some dignity about our suffering is better for us in the long run. Or so it seems to me.

In the bible it says to enjoy life, and if you're enjoying life there's no reason to complain. If you have a reason to complain, maybe you should sit back and look at your life and wether or not you're REALLY enjoying it. (enjoying it in a biblical sense)
Ecclesiasties 8:15
So I recommend the enjoyment of life, 1 for there is nothing better on earth 2 for a person to do 3 except 4 to eat, drink, and enjoy 5 life. 6 So 7 joy 8 will accompany him in his toil during the days of his life which God gives him on earth. 9

Yes, I always try to learn something everyday. Yeah, I hate when people complain, like when I beat my cousin at games he complains and comes up with excuses, I hate that.

There are people in this world who are going through terrible situations that would make most Americans faint dead away. Bottom line - if you think you have something to complain about you are most likely wrong.

if I don't learn something new every day then the day has been a total waste of time and I have failed in my quest to gain more wisdom and knowledge.

I try my best in all ways but sometimes everything goes overboard, but it just depends on the situation.

Why do people always compare themselves to "people that are worse off" to make themselves feel better? What about the people that are so much BETTER off? There's a new thing to think about today.
