Maya Angelou spoke of the differences between whining and protesting, that it is okay to stand up and speak up and take actions against those that harm, but not to sit and whine about them.
When you whine she said, ‘you attract more predators, for they hear your weakness.’
And the phrase, ‘don’t whine about it, do something about it’ comes to mind.
What I know for sure, my whining about my parents and their behavior would not have set me free. The only thing that would, was to protest by walking away.
I am not whining about my past, I am protesting the behaviors and or treatments that were handed out.
Your actions are all it is needed to protest.
Whining is speaking without actions.
Only actions will move you from victim to victor.
