I have listened enough

Every so often, there comes a period in our lives when we feel that we have had enough of someone's complains. What should we do than???

One of the first questions to ask yourself is, have i truly listened? To fully comprehend the complaints, one should listen deeply, and listen between the lines. There is a solution to any problem. But the problem must first be identified. Your friend might be complaining about A, but the real problem is B. Hopefully thru deep listening we can identify B, and help to overcome the problem.

Should deep listening fail to work, I guess we should extract ourselves from the situation, as complaining can become contagious, which is something which we do not want to happen.

For the brave ones, try telling your friend, kindly, that you have listened enough. And maybe it is time for them to look for a solution instead of plain complaining, which is not helping anyone.

If you could live in the present, there is no such things as complains, as everything is just the way it should be
