I do feel sorry for all the people that are out there that can not enjoy life.The kind of people that moan, grump and upset other people that are their friends.I feel that life is for living and making the most of the time while we are here.There are loads of things that people can find to do other than grump, moan or make other people upset.

I do feel sorry for them too, there's some of them on my environment and well, I am sure that behaviour is gonna bring them only problems in the future. It is immature and childish, because there will be always a person that is worse than you, people that live in the most absolute poverty in poor countries, without food or water, and lots of diseases. We will never give enough thanks for not being in that situation. People that do that are not happy if they don't make other's unhappy, and that is a harmful and unhealthy way of happiness.

I think that these people do not have nothing better in their lives to do.I think that the world would be a happier place if people just took care of the things in their lives, rather than trying to muscle into other peoples.I think that happiness is the way in how you feel as a person and life is really what we all make it, no matter what is going on around us.

I do feel the same too. These people need the counseling, encouragement, concerning and a lot more from the people around them to lead them back to the normal, healthy, cheerful and socialized life.

I think that life is here to be enjoyed. This year I found a lovely way to enjoy life: take a day out per month to somewhere I haven't been to before. I go on the day trip with my 4 year disabled son and my 2 year old daughter. We went to Exeter in March, a bird reserve in April, to Cheltenham in May, to Yorkshire for a week in June, to Plymouth in July, to Avon Cliff and Bradford Upon Avon in August and to Swindon in September. We went to Swindon to visit a train museum. Right now I am enjoying planning for my trip overseas in 2012. I feel sorry for the people that don't enjoy life for some reason. We must make the most of our time in life for we don't know when it will end.

I know exacly what you mean. I have a neighbor who constantly thinks she is sick, had a cramp, pain here or there, she is sick so she can't work, she has no money when she doesn't work, when she does work, it is too hard on her, she is such a downer....you feel depressed when you leave. I have had to limit myself from her. her constant negativity drives me crazy.

I only tend to feel sorry for them if I know they've been trying to make their life better and nothing ever works for them. I've noticed that many people seem to be down in the dumps these days because of the lack of jobs, the lack of finding help, and the inability to help themselves. By the inability I mean finding a job or getting into college to help them move forward. At the same time, when I see people who gripe and moan and then snap at their friends for trying to offer suggestions that leads me to believe the following: 1: They're very upset and nothing that is said can console them. 2: They really don't care about their circumstances, but want something to complain about and then look like the victim. 3: They're just extremely frustrated, not sure what to do, feel helpless, think it's hopeless, and don't really mean what they say and do. 4: They're playing the sympathy card. It is hard to determine which of these four people fall into without really knowing them and their circumstances. I can say this much though. We've all been there at one time or another. We've all complained about something that we didn't like to our friends. We've all become angry, moped, cried, and pushed people away to give ourselves alone time to think. I don't think there's a single person the face of this planet that has never had anything bother them. I do agree there are other ways to unleash one's feelings without the grumpiness and moaning. I tend to think about my problems for a while before I talk them out. Sometimes though, depending on the circumstances, I do get grumpy and agitated. But at the same time, I'd rather not take it out anyone, unless they're the cause for it. Even so, I'd rather just tell them how I feel in a calm manner and not bite their heads off. Unfortunately, there are people who just don't listen when you do talk to them, and you have no choice but to bite their heads off. It's not something I enjoy doing though, and would rather they meet me halfway.

Yes I definitely agree with you. Life is quite short, sometimes I look bakc and feel confused at how times have passed so quickly It is not worthwhile to spend time being unhappy, lonely, pessimistic and one should try to fill up his days with joy, laughter and mstly love.

Life is too short to be grumpy and get depressed all the time. It was a good thing that it wasn't too late for me to realize that. I started to count my blessings rather than to think about things which aren't there. I've become more grateful to people and ti different circumstances in life. Even if these were challenges I have been thankful for those because it made me realize how blessed I am. We should enjoy our life and be grateful with it. We should not waste it by mopping around or by envying other people. We should make use of the talents and skills that we have to make the most of out lives. We should have fun and try our best to make others happy too.

I do have to admit that I feel sorry for them as well. Yes, life can be stressful, and such, but I still think that we should be able to enjoy it. It's something that we all should be able to do. There should be some fun in our lives, so that we can enjoy the life that we have.

I have severe depression with panic attacks and I tend to relate to these grumpy and moany people. I also have SAD which makes the Winter time fun and full of frolic. There are loads of things people can do instead. Like turn over and go back to sleep, not go outside and stay away from people.

I don't feel sorry for people like that! If they can't enjoy life that is their problem! Go and enjoy your life! Worring or feeling sad for other people is not a good thing! Its not your problem! It is a waste of time!

I feel sorry for them too, i guess they find it more relaxing when they bug others, like they want others to feel they are feeling just to make sure that others can understand what is going through them. That is sad. I have had my bad moments but when i am with my friends i forget about all of that and enjoy with them. In a way being with friends and passing time is a great way to forget the past and feel hurt again, it's when there is no one around and nothing to do that the past haunts us back to being depressive. But i never trouble others with my problems and my friends know my story and they are very good to me. I love my friends and they mean a lot to me. Honestly, I don't know what would i have done if i did not have such close and kind friends. I am going to cherish them all my life.

I think many people feel life is for living. But it also has to do with how you are raised, in which country you live if you are allowed to live life. In most western countries you are not. You need to go to school, to study, to find a job. You are lived by the school rules, the law, the rules at your job, you have every day so many things you have to do or finished or show and most of them have nothing to do with living your life and enjoying it. If you want to enjoy it, do something you like you need money and the biggest part of your money (the one you earn) goes to tax, rent, insurances etc. You learn to save money for later, so you can enjoy your life later, but then the economics turn to be out bad, no pension left over for those who worked for it for years. Tax up to 27% in some countries (like Hungary for example), people around you die, they only worked and struggeld to stay alive and to pay bill after bill. You find out there is no later and if the chance is very small you will enjoy your dream, what you saved for the same way as you would have as you were still young. For many it's not enough to be happy a life time with just the little things in life that seems to get less and less, smaller and smaller till there is nothing left over. I think that is enough to get upset about, to find out your life is nearly over and you never had time for you. Some people will moan and grump because they were never able to make plans for the feature, or they will never be able to. It's easy to say you feel sorry, perhaps you should be or perhaps you should be happy you are not in their position (yet).

ya, me too!!.. i've seen many people like that.. they don't enjoy life and make others feel for it. I think they just need to focus on their happiness and make life simple.

yeah even i feel really bad and sorrow for them who cannot enjoy their lifes .. actually it is the fact of this world , that some people are enjoying life wheras, the other people are going through the tough hardships and tough times k.. we all cannot celebrate or be happy at the same time and it is the fact we all have to trust .... meanwhile, we should also share the sorrow of the people during our happy time .

I know a few like that as well.These are the people that tend to moan on about other people and things that other people have bought, rather than being happy for other people.I feel that life is to short to moan and grump and we should always do things for us and our family to ensure that we are happy and let all the moaners get on with it.
