A Complaint Free World

Post-21 Days

It has been nearly a month since I reach my 21 complaint free days. My journey continues, and I know what you want to ask me. I can see you struggling with it.

And, yes. I have complained since we last visited. But do I feel that I have failed in some way because of my missteps? Emphatically, no. For every spoken gripe there have been five or six that I have swallowed. The balance has definitely tilted toward the positive rather than the negativity I had been mired in for so long when I started this trek.

So, what has caused me to complain? Nothing different than your own grumbling and griping. I traded my ten year old car for a newer model. A phone company insists on billing me for services never rendered. Enough said?

My phone rang the other day and guess who was on the other end. Will Bowen himself, congratulating me for achieving my 21 days. Nice man. We talked a bit about my idea to put these blogs into book form, and he encouraged me to do so.
