What do you complain about the most?

As for me, when I witness ungratefulness, it is when I complain the most.

We live in a time where relationships, job occupations, and commitments are becoming more ephemeral. We are jumping from one relationship into another, always with high expectations from our next partner, but without doing any self-reflection or self-improvement. We are regularly changing jobs to chase higher pay and career status. We switch tastes and hobbies to gain the most experience from everything; it doesn’t matter if it’s superficial. It’s enough to brag about in front of others. And here is where ungratefulness pops up.

We are never satisfied with anything we already have; we always want more and more. We buy the latest smartphone model, spending a lot of money, but in a year, we want the next model, even though our current one works perfectly. Or we fill our closets only with brand clothes, and we don’t dare to hang no-name brand clothes inside them. In relationships, our ego, needs, and career visions prevent us from considering the wishes and conditions of our partner. We are exploring new tastes and hobbies to avoid missing out on anything we might regret later. God help me, I must do that Wingsuit flying. Otherwise, I will be unhappy for the rest of my life. And the saddest part is, let’s think we accomplished everything we hoped and wished for, we often forget to thank the people who helped us get there, and show our gratitude.

So, I would say we should look into ourselves and put one and one together. Be thankful if you have three meals daily, a warm bed, clean clothes, and good health, because other people don’t have even half of what you have. If your partner accepts you as you are, be thankful and responsive; nowadays, it’s hard to find someone with whom you feel you can share a life.

Under the line, I would say to be grateful for what you have and return something to others; it’s the best karma you can do to attract genuine happiness, abundance, and love.
