Cruelty, Judgements, Hostility.

In my travels I happened to see.

A homeless man staring at me.

The further I went.

I seemed to keep smelling that homeless mans scent.

I started to wonder how it would feel.

If I was cold and hungry, days without a meal.

We are no better than the next.

You should try to help others with you wealth and success.

Just because your on top now.

You could fall into hard times some how.

So think back on that homeless man.

Try to acknowledge his situation and better understand.

    When spend too much time thinking about ourselves, always taking thing for granted. The more you for others, the more you will receive. Don’t be selfish

    The book of wisdom states: I comforted you not for your comfort but so you may comfort others. There would be no homelessness, if all who are living well shared just a little of the wealth. Another great article.
