Independently

My people, for too long we have been moving as a nation Independently, so much so that our girls have become prostitutes and our youths have turned to crime. The cost of living is high while the value of life has declined. Now I could tell you what I am about but you've not gone deaf, only gone blind. Don't you see that to manipulate and kill each other is no way to achieve? still others have done this so why must you believe? "Each one, teach one, give a man a helping hand" . Was this just a slogan or did I interpret it wrong? We are God's people and we survive through his grace, disregarding our race this is what I know. So why do our men criticize and chastise our sisters because she does not respond to a "Hi, Psst and hello" And women why is your worth measured on a piece of paper? Yourself respect and pride all set aside for later. When you were born queens of the earth, the very essence of life is what you give. You need not money to define your worth and I am not trying to tell you how to live but for too long we have been doing it alone and I think it's time we unite for under God we're all one family and we've already tried it independently. written by: Germaine Thompson
