Think About It

We all have our problems - Some more than others
Many times we take for granted - Our loved ones (husbands, wives, friends, 
sisters, brothers, fathers and mothers)

We get caught up in ourselves - Sometimes thinking we are better than some
Truth be told – we may be better at “something” - But we are better than none

Some forget where they come from - When the money starts to stack high
Our noses stare to the sky - Not uttering a word to a passer-by

Why do we act the way we do? - Why must you not like me and I in return not like 
you?
Why do we belittle one another without hesitation? - We are all a part of GOD’S 
great creation

I love myself and those around - I’ve been known to make one smile when they 
originally wore a frown
We need to uplift, motivate and encourage one another
When opportunity knocks, grab hold of its throat and fight off the odds

For we would not be a people
If there was no GOD

THINK ABOUT IT!
