I found this on the internet today, oh how I love the internet! What on earth did we do before it? Encyclopedias? pffft! Mail letters with stamps? What?!!? Go to the Library?!?! And what on EARTH did we do with all our free time?
I must admit I was a whiner last week. I had a couple of rough days. Why? I don't really know. I blame it on my RAGING hormones and quite frankly, a lack of vacation. I really am sorry, mostly to and for my DH who had to put up with me. I digress...
Whiners are people with long faces, who are sad, depressed, irritable, never feel good and always have some reason things aren't going their way and it's ALWAYS someone else's fault. Something is always annoying them, it's always party cloudy and the glass, most definitly, is at least half empty. They are people with a black cloud that follows them around, unhappy with their place in life, and either too lazy or too tired to fix it. They never sleep good, always have bad dreams, and are never on time. They have no energy and are annoyed by those who aren't like them.
They are energy SUCKERS. They pull from others what they do not internally have. They want others to be down with them. They want to pull you down with them. Will you let them? Life is not easy, but it is not meant to be. Life is hard. And if life seems to be going great, easy...it's only a matter of time before something will happen to change things all around.
I am not going to be a whiner. No one likes a whiner.
