To dare is to lose one’s footing momentarily. Not to dare is to lose oneself.

Okay good. Now just stop. Every day, think of five beautiful things that are worth not whining about and recognize them throughout the day.
Whining isn't always a bad thing - lord knows I do it all the time - but try and pick out what's not important, and replace those thoughts with your five beautiful things.

I think that what you really need to begin considering is prioritization and scheduling for one. It would help you a great deal.

I would if I could. I've already tried stopping myself from posting, but somehow every time I show up inevitably I will be talked about and inevitably I will whine.

1. Yes.

2. Doesn't mean she gets to bitch at me and chew my fucking head off and throw shit at me for being irritated that she's ignoring and dismissing my requests for her to kindly change the volume of her conversations and/or the venue because they're keeping me from going to sleep. I don't stay in her damn room all day and blast my music as loud as it'll go, even as she's trying to sleep. If I were, sure, she'd be justified in bitching at me and the like. But I'm not.

3. Only because the nature of their relationship is toxic to me. Its negatively affecting my relationship with my mother, which I know is something she doesn't want to happen.


any ratiolnalisation in a storm. do whatever you want, prentend it isnt selfish, go for making mom miseable, cause you know its what she really wants.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

You're not a crazy hippie :p I find it interesting, even if not my cup of tea. I prefer physical mobility and reading to relax myself, also interaction with other people has helped me out.

I'm not just talking about in here. I'm talking about your "whining" thoughts to begin with. Instead of thinking to yourself "god my day was so hard I wish I eas someone with an easier life" think "yeah, my day was hard, but the sunset tonight is really beautiful" and train your brain to think of the positive.

Oh I know, the way you describe it sounds awfully complex and there's no dispute about it. But also you need some time for yourself.

Being quite honest, everyone needs some breaks throughout the day, makes work not look so overbearing and lets you focus on yourself.

You do. It doesn't have to be you, or directly related to your life. It could be that snow looks really pretty in the sun, or the rain sounds nice against my roof.
