Why Do We Complain So Much?

I realize I do this too, this is definitely not finger pointing. But something happened this week that made me realize this more than normal. I saw "The Last Jedi".

I know, I'm the last person to see it. But with being sick over Christmas and trying to catch up with everything this past weekend was the first "break" I've had in a while so we I got to see the movie. And then I got to do something else, go back on the internet...

And the amount of complaining about the movie is astounding. But that's not what hit me.

It was the amount of complaining by people who really have nothing to do with the product. I started thinking, you didn't take the time to write a story, develop it, get funding, hire actors, make costumes, etc. etc. and this got me thinking how often do we complain about things that we have absolutely nothing to do with. We're quick to complain but incredibly slow to actually do something, especially something so significant it will touch someone else so deeply they would want to complain about it.

Instead of complaining, let's try doing something about it.
