It's All Mental
Do you know what it means to be mental?
Of course not! We all just stare and criticize those who can't think for themselves.
Nor do we lend a helping hand.
We just stare and criticize.
We all know they don't have the same mental capacity! But cut 'em some slack!
It's not their fault that they were born like or developed like that.
Everyone can criticize on a blind man or a mentally ill person but when it's time to talk
to that man that can see and speak clearly we never criticize or talk back!
This is a very touchy subject don't you think?
Please, I beg of next time you see someone that can't speak clearly or looks like they
belong on the rode with clowns just ask yourselves, " What if that were me? Would I want
people staring and calling me names? "
No one should get hurt because of their disabilities, nor should anyone think that they're
better than the next because the Lord created us EQUALLY.
