Why is it that it's always _so much_ easier to criticise, to complain, and to point out faults, than it is to actually fix the problem?
That strikes me as a fundamental problem with the world. That those that can, do, but those that can't feel the need to smash, complain, and otherwise degrade the whole thing.
Well, they do say that before trying to criticise someone you should first walk a mile in their shoes. And not just because then you're a mile away, and you've got their shoes.
I suspect I'm as bad at that as the next person. After all, it's easy to give opinions, and much harder to _actually do_ something.
Perhaps that's something that I shall try next year. Each time I catch myself doing something along those lines, to actually stop, think for a moment, and see if I can't do it better. And if I can't, proceed to STFU and let those that can, do.
