Here is another big complainer. I have learned to accept that part of me and use that energy to try to change the things I can instead of just complaining and not be very annoying to those around me.
I think that's part of the personality of people who are critical of life. I can relate to your writing because I've been the grumpy old man all my life.
I really enjoyed this piece, Hrvoje. The reason being — other than the excellent writing, of course — I related to it. It almost felt like you’d captured my thoughts of late.
This bit in particular, really got me:
“I make all of these promises to myself: promises that I’ll become better, promises that I’ll stop complaining, promises that I won’t judge other people. But they rarely last longer than a day.”

That’s a very healthy attitude. I should do that more, that’s for sure.

Thank you, Michael. Glad you enjoyed it and I appreciate it.
