I hate to complain to people but I've found that it's my nature to get things off my chest. At the same time I don't want that negativity to be around people. I also don't want to relive unnecessary bullshit which won't improve the situation. As much as I attempt to hold it in, I find myself complaining to the person who is with me. This is why I prefer to be alone when I go through trying times so I don't fall into that mode. I never imagined there'd be times that test me more than my time in college working 3 jobs strugglin to make it work. Now that I don't have to constantly worry about finances, I find other aspects of my life that can't nearly be fixed by pure hustle. It's the angle/lens I gotta look at it I guess. Lately, I find that once I filter out my complaints, I do not have much else to say. I complain, someone feels the same way, and we complain together. There's no point. It just prolongs the negative feelings that prompted me to complain to begin with.
