The Concept of "Complaining"

For those of us who focus on the idea or concept of "complaining", it implies an underlying belief that it is Not okay to voice one's own concerns, wants, and desires. It implies that we are Supposed To keep those to ourselves. As social beings who depend on each other, it is natural that we express our needs and how we believe others can help to fulfill those needs. There is potential joy to be had for those honoring those requests (the satisfaction gained from knowing we helped to contribute to life), as well as the joy experienced by recipients (knowing that we can count on others to help us and support us along our journey).
