Crib

Ok this is really very funny as far as i remember, every time i complained my mom turned around and said " Nami stop cribbing".... I mean yes I have heard the word in many other contexts ; cots, people homes etc. but mostly in the complain context only.... and somehow the same meaning as in crib meaning complain doesn't exist on the net... so before i go forward an ardent request to anyone who reads this post.... if you by any chance come across the meaning of crib as i have known it please give me the link so that i can alter my post...

Now what i intended to say before i started this post is completely different. We all crib, its human nature ... Mummy the food's not nice.... I wanted a pink shirt and you got me a blue one.... oh what the hell, the trailers to the movie were so much better than the movie actually was.... Why is my food getting delayed, why can't i ever get it on time.... yada yada yada.... and more blah blah blah... ya too many reasons to crib about.... But you know cribbing is of two kinds - useful ( I'm telling you it can be) and useless, the later ones being all the examples above and some like ; it's hot in Delhi .... Yes in the month of May and June it is hot in Delhi ... Christ, it rains too much in Mumbai... Yes in the rainy season it always rains too much in Mumbai.... So when someone cribs like this all i feel like doing is turning around and saying Duuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh!!!!!..... I mean i am a very very understanding person and I can empathise a lot, but sorry not on reasons like these... Please Forgive Me.....

Useful cribbing when most of the times our parents crib ; why are you sitting useless... do something constructive....clean your room... eat proper healthy food..I get to listen to it most of the time,yes if one tries to act on those well it could turn out to be a blessing.... Or when these days most of us turn around and crib to God... Please make it Rain... Yes we need those, there are lot of forest fires happening, lots of crop being spoilt because of no rain, water levels are going done.. can't have that happening... so every time we crib about rain not happening, our collective prayer is being sent and He just might listen to us soon enough. When we crib more bitch about our near and dear ones... if only he could do this... if only she would understand that this irritates me, yes we all endlessly crib about our own people wanting them to change in someway if not more, well if that near and dear one understands the reason of your cribbing and changes. Your cribbing might just have worked, it could be useful, but sometimes it brings in distance so beware....

So all I want to say is Crib lot more people if it makes sense....coz when you crib with mind you could bring about a good change.... and that's good in most of the cases.. we don't need stagnancy in our life do we.....but..... if it doesn't make sense.... spare the people around you ... you could well be perceived as a cynic... we don't want that happening do we.....
