Stop Hating Me

I did not choose whether to be born And i did not choose where to be born I did not choose when to be born And i did not choose my mother to be You did not choose your birth place And you did not choose your birth family You did not choose your birth time And you did not choose your gender So stop hating me because am not your tribe And stop hating me because my family is not rich like yours Stop hating me because am from a different nation And stop hating me because am a different gender Simply stop hating me for things i did not choose

I agree with this whole heartedly. But those that hate who maybe afraid of what they are DEEP inside, I think they hide.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your wisdom through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
