My observation of people who are chronic complainers (such as your grandma Shesus, perhaps, I could be totally off base) is that they are also fearful. The things they complain about are dangerous, uncomfortable, risky, inconvenient, disquieting, confusing, out to get them or in any other way threatening to their own perception of 'safe.'
