Daily Whine & Shine - May 30, 2008

by Marilyn Mackenzie

 

Whether you agree with the concept or not, everyone needs to be able to vent from time to time. That's especially true if you're one of the many who suffer from an invisible illness. We have whines and rants about pains, medical professionals and prescriptions, just to name a few. Perhaps our families listen; perhaps they don't. Even if they do, they get tired of our complaining, even if they claim to understand our constant struggles. Or if they don't get tired of our "negative energy" we think they do or will.

So here we are.  What's happening in your world today?  Are you grumpy about something?  Or so angry that you could spit?  Tell it here.  Here at the Daily Whine & Shine, it's acceptable to rant, vent, complain, stomp your feet, throw a tantrum and shout, "Oh shuckie darn!"

Wait! Don't go away. Do you have some good news to share? Great. This is the place for that as well. If you're celebrating, dancing, and yelling, "Yippee skippy!" please share. Sometimes knowing about someone else's happiness gives us a bit of hope for ourselves.

Today is Hug Your Cat Day, Memorial Day (actual), Water a Flower Day

Tomorrow is National Macaroon Day, What You Think Upon Grows Day

 

 

 

Food for thought:

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.  Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.  ~  Margaret Mead
