Summary

On the day after Christmas, take a moment to appreciate all the good things and don't start whining.

In 1986 Rev. Kevin Zaborney designated December 26th as National Whiner’s Day. Zaborney founded the holiday in hopes of encouraging people to be thankful for what they have rather than unhappy about what they don’t have.
