Stop Complaining - Moral Short Story

Once there was a person in a village who always use to complain about the same thing over and over again. He was restless and kept talking about the same issues each day instead of bringing a change. Everyone in the village ignored this man as they were tired of listening to his rant. One day a wise man observed this and sat with that person. Before the person could say anything, the wise man told him an anecdote and he busted into laughter.


The wise man then repeated his joke and the person smiled. The wise man kept his same joke on loop till the other person was no longer laughing or smiling. After concluding he has no reactions on the same joke the wise man continued “If you can’t laugh at the same joke again and again, then why do you keep complaining about the same problem more than once?”


Moral- You will go nowhere if you just keep complaining about everything in life, if you can’t fix your problem then accept it. Don’t waste your time or whine about your issues, make a difference if it’s bothering you. Remember change is the only constant thing.
