Before You Complain

Before you say any unkind word Think of some one who can't speak. Before yo complain about the taste of your food Think of someone who has nothing to eat. Before you complain about your husband or wife Think of some one who is crying out to God for a companion Today before you complain about life and it hardship Think of those who died so young unlike you. Before you complain about your children Whether ugly or handsome, stubborn or imbecile Think of those who are desirous for children But they are barren and hopeless. Before complaining of the distance you drive Think of someone who walked the same distance with his feet. He never complain nor give up in his quest rather His mind and spirit walked alongside with him Encouraging his humble heart to wearing not. Before you complain of your job Think of the unemployed, the disable and those Who wish they could have your kind of job but Could not because of one problem or the other. Before you condemn another, remember no one is perfect Under the sun covered with evil and darkness. YOur heart is your love and ambition your aspiration. Destiny has it own way of governing individual Stand tall and complain not because your life is virtue Of honour and it has a price to pay.
