Stop Complaining ~Be Grateful....

Every day I read post's or status's (mostly facebook) with constant complaining.......First off be Proactive not Reactive, be for, not against.....If It bothers you so bad, don't be like a sport spectator, then do something about It....

Yes, some go through adversity, however In the U.S.A, I think if you are going to complain of how bad It Is, maybe you ought to think you are not sitting In a field with no food, shelter, or running water, with no hope In sight of crops or rain....

WE SINFULLY WASTE DAILY, what would be treasured gold to another person.

This Is still a land of opportunity, and I think those who complain should count their lucky stars... I hear this, we need not help other countries because we have poor here, hello, why would you not help anyone In need In some small way???? They don't have WELFARE, FOOD BANKS, RENTERS ASSISTANCE In the fields.

Some talk of the unjust wealthy, well some people have worked very hard to get what they have, It did not fall on their lap.....You can do anything you want In the US. The choice Is yours.....

Yes we do have some political social issues going on, but by no means are we really poor....kids do not shine shoes on the streets for pennies here....

I am just tired & bored of the criticism's here, complaints, those who constantly put negatives out there.........How about helping, Instead of protesting......How about some positive action.......

Despite all going on, you still have far more freedom & opportunity here than many countries....Quit complaining about shutting the borders, most of Us are here because our parents or grandparents came here, to HAVE opportunity....We are still the youngest nation.

Think about It, start by being grateful for WHAT you do have & stop complaining about what you don't have........Help the less fortunate whenever you can, no matter where they are from.... You never know, you may have something more legitimate to complain about yourself one day.....If you want WAR to end, as It should..... start by having peace, love, compassion, & thankfulness IN YOUR OWN HEART.....
