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