Grievances - Stay Pure. Stay Silent.

Grievances - everyone has them, however, the mission should you choose to accept is to rid your mind of all grievances and live the happy dream.

What's a grievance?

Grievance - a grievance is a perceived wrong (although it may be imaginary), committed against you by someone or something outside you, a wrong that in your mind justifies your complaint and resentment.

A grievance is the feeling of resentment that arises from that perceived wrong.

A grievance is always about some external event in which you feel unfairly treated.

Your proclamation to the world: "You did something wrong to me, and I have a right to be upset about it.”
