The moment you start talking about a problem, it becomes much more than that. It doesn't matter what kind of setback it is; it could be an argument with a friend, a subject you have trouble understanding, or it could be something trivial you have lost.
At first it is just a feeling. You feel uncomfortable thinking about it. It bothers you to some extent, but it is nothing more than that. When you start talking about it, it turns into something monstrous, especially if the listener agrees with you. Then you can't stand it anymore. It becomes the only think you can think of, and you won't rest until the matter is solved. The horrible thing is, the more you struggle with it, the harder it becomes to handle it, and something so small suddenly becomes the first step of all the bigger troubles to come, but I have learned my lesson the hard way. I will never talk about my problems again.

There is some truth in what you say. But it is hard not to speak of our problems, sometimes searching for a solution sometime to be understood, sometimes just to ease the pain by letting some of it go.
ReplyDeleteI am bad at this. I shall try to remember what you have written.
Quite a controversial issue!
ReplyDeleteDon't you think that the person with whom we share our problems plays a crucial role?
About me that's totally vice versa. consulting, especially with my intimate friends,has influenced my life thorughly, but the last decision is originally mine.
