One of my goals this year is to not complain as much as I do. Complaining never solves any problems, and I always feel bad for the person who has to listen to me complain. It's never fun to listen to the complaints of others, so why do I do it? I haven't been doing such a great job, but tomorrow is always a new day and I can start over then. I love this quote by President Hinckley:
"Generally speaking the most miserable people I know are those who are obsessed with themselves; the happiest people are those who lose themselves in the service of others...By and large, I have come see that if we complain about life, it is because we are thinking only of ourselves."
Such wise words from an incredible man. :)
