Following are three short key lessons. Use their insights to help free yourself from the self-inflicted punishment of complaining.
Until we become conscious of how many
more times a day we complain about our
life than we feel gratitude for the gift of it,
we not only miss the taste of life’s secret
sweetness, but we continue to sow the
bitter seeds of our own sorrow.
It seldom occurs to us that whatever we
persist with in our lives works to perfect
the same, so that by allowing persistent
negative thoughts and feelings to have
their way with us, we unknowingly
perfect self-punishment!
Learn never to blame another for the
pain you feel, nor to complain about
anything that life brings to your door;
but this doesn’t mean to be accepting of
those who would see you ache, nor
should you be apathetic in the face of
anything that challenges your hopes
and aspirations.
