We Shouldn’t Complain

I saw a movie yesterday and it brought some of what is going on in the East to a new perspective. Here I am sitting at home wishing I could go out but the rain prevents me and I am confused and miserable but they are others

We Shouldn’t Complain

When it pours out and there’s no where to go

Enjoying places like a Crop Over show

Sometimes it rains and starts to flood

Have you thought of others in streets of blood

Out in the East where the sun is hot

Under rains of bullets the people can not

Leave their homes and things get worst

Don’t get flood but the bombs that burst

No opportunity to nestle up in bed

They huddle with fears and pain of the dead

Cadavers around them and on the streets out

Ordinary people like me, like you who can never shout

Make no grimaces at friends who died

Place little hopes on a future or dreams that lied

Like rain, the bullets and bombs pour

And today’s shelter will tomorrow be no more

I think we should no longer quarrel about the rain

Now, how ever hard it pours, We Shouldn’t Complain

    We take so much for granted, but then we also tend to feel guilty for enjoying what is available to us resulting in us wasting as well. God is still in control.
