Simplicity


Times today are hard.
We have lost the simplicity of things.
 The beauty of wind on our faces.
The pure joy in a baby's giggle.
The magic of a sunrise.
All we see is the bad and the difficult.
If something is easy, we take it and spread it around until it's all tangled up.
Somehow we have gotten to the point where we like to put people in distress.
Selfishness is very wide spread nowadays.
Where have we gone wrong?
We used to house strangers and feed the hungry.
Now we pass them without a second glance.
Not me!
I will smile in the wind,
Smell a simple flower,
Help a person in need,
Whether I know them or not.
I will stand out against the crowd.
My life will not be destroyed with selfishness.
I will always simply want to help my fellow man.
