Complaining seems to be part of our human nature. Life, 46 , is full of difficulties. It is   47   to feel disappointed, irritated and unhappy at times. The real problem, 48 , comes when we take those negative inner feeelings and   49 them out loud. Somehow, it makes everything   50 .

So, 53   something ticks you off, like a rainy day or a bad meal, try 54 your tongue instead of complaining. It will be your contribution to   55   a world without complaints.
