There comes a time in our lives where we find ourselves in multiple situations of frustrations. For example, people who stay far away from their work places are frustrated riding their vehicles for hours on the road. You'd want to just go home and crash. When you reach home, you would want to relax and recoup but you'd hear more annoying stories that happened during the day. You switch on the TV and they keep bombarding you with more negative. We sit and complain about the person who we don't even know, but do it anyway cause we think if we vent out everything would be okay, but don't realize that it keeps adding more to our irritation. Then there comes a point where you want to just get out of the city and go relax somewhere for a few days and forget about everything. When you move out of the city for a getaway, you face frustrations of inflation everywhere. Well, there can be more, but I guess you know where I'm heading.
There are multiple points in our lives where frustration creeps in, and the frustration definitely knows how to have fun with us. The root cause I would feel is where we have so fine tuned ourselves to keep complaining about things, that we have forgotten that there could be a possible solution. A solution would be as simple as making a conscious decision of not getting annoyed on the road. We have control only of our vehicles, and not someone else. Whatever should happen would definitely happen. You cannot control inflation by speaking about how it controls you, instead do something about it. Buy lesser things, save money until it subsides in your head. There are plenty of ways where you could find a solution. Like some of us maybe complaining right now about what I'm writing and as to how can there be a solution for everything. You're right. There cannot be a solution for everything, but there can be workarounds as well. The least I learnt being an engineer is to create a workaround for myself during certain situations. If something doesn't go according to my way, I would find a temporary solution to it. I read a quote recently "Happiness doesn't come to people who aren't satisfied with the things they currently have". So true. As human beings we constantly have this need to have more; which is fine to an extent, but it depends on how we make ourselves meaningful by wanting extra things. Maybe I'm also complaining to an extent in what I'm writing now, but I'm complaining that there need not be any complaining to do. We can find a solution. There's definitely a way out to everything.
