"I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man with no feet." Indian Proverb

As I'm going about my days it seems there are more and more things to complain about. Everyone I talk to, myself included, has an endless list of dislikes, upsets and disapprovements. While this is normal and understandable I feel increasingly wrong about my words, tone and their direction. Why complain? What will it achieve? If not complaining to the source is it not a complete waste of time and energy? Perhaps the outsource of frustration is the reward for noticing an issue or area of improvement. Whatever the case I don't feel my complaints lead to answers or improvements. If I take no action to better these situations, who am I to say anything? This is when complaining turns to whining and I don't want to be a whiner.
Today I make a conscious effort to not complain unless the situation directly effects me or I plan to make it better. I challenge you to do the same. :)

A key step in getting a job is showing up for the interview

Over the last little while I have had this reoccuring idea to not only write my thoughts down, but attempt to share them with those who might be interested; thus, I intend to enter the world of blogging. Even if this is never seen by anyone, the idea that it could be seen my many is a comforting feeling and I feel less alone in this wacky modern era. With this, I would like to welcome myself to the blogging world and say how happy I am to be here. :)
