I have noticed that because, on the whole, I live a pretty comfortable life (job a job where they like me and give me freedom, etc), other people can get irritated or feel off-put when I complain about it. While even the sweetest peach has a pit, it is good to remember that I really don't have it badly. I also tend to dismiss other people's problems or concerns, especially when i cannot relate to them, too quickly (conversationally). The most insensitive and thoughtless things I do, I find, are when my brain is going me me me. I need to remember to think of others first.
