it could be worse

I was working today and got this massive sob story (which happens regularly), and while by the sound of things they got themselves into the mess, they can't blame anyone else, but they do. However, I was thinking about how often I complain about things in my life and how tough it's been for me at times and I stopped short and just thought "well, I guess it could be worse."

The biggest issue I have about listening to others problems is that it seems like they have all this hate towards the people that supposedly got them into the mess, when really it's their own fault. And to be frank that actually kind of pisses me off. You don't have anyone to blame but yourself, so stop. Yes it sucks, I'm not saying it doesn't, but you got yourself in it, so get yourself out. Yes, it will take time and it may possibly even require you to ask for help, but it can be done. So work on it.

As for me and my situations...I choose to do what I'm doing now and I know it's been hard and it will continue to be hard, but it was my decision, I stand by that decision and I know that if I want something I have to go after it. So I will. I also understand that things are not always going to go the way I want them to, and while yes I may sulk over it for awhile, I will get over it and move on. I have to. If I don't I'd be stuck in one position, never moving forward and always looking back.
