Why Do We Complain?

Why do we complain? Some of us have the habit of going on and on and on. Akin to a duracell battery - lasts ten times longer! (OK, OK, I can see the fingers pointed at me. I don't complain. Just plain old ranting from here!)
I understand that sometimes things aren't quite perfect. Anyone living in India ought to know that by now. But, NO. Most urban Indians go on and on about bad roads, traffic, weather, politicians and what not. Stop it! Any city in the world has bad traffic. Ten-lane highways in England get blocked for miles during rush-hour. If you don't like it, go and stay in a village. I'm sure the roads (if any) are empty enough for your liking. As for the bad roads and politicians, not much can be done by your arm-chair observations. If we all view election day as a holiday to be spent lazing around, then what else is going to happen?
Look at the bright side for a change. Compare today's India with the India of ten years ago and you'll find a world of difference. Things are changing. What's required is time and a bit of patience.
Meanwhile, let's stop sounding like complaints' registers and admire the silence for a while, shall we?
