PSA
I know that my life isn't that bad---a supportive family, a roof over my head, the funds to go to school, a job, money in my bank account and people that I can call friends--but I am human too, I complain about things that bother me. And in my case, I like to complain and ramble more often than others because it's a stress relief.
But, it does not give you the right to lecture me to think about how great my life is and put down my problems as nothing.
I know how fortunate I am and I am thankful every day. I may not announce my love for everybody and go around talking about how wonderful my life is but I am thankful. However, things do bother me and if I can't talk about it with someone I thought a friend than who can I talk to? It's actually hypocritical to chastise me and then complain about your own life and similar problems that you have. That's a really douche move.
