Today before you say an unkind word –
Think of someone who can’t speak.

Before you complain about the taste of your food –
Think of someone who has nothing to eat.

Before you complain about your husband or wife –
Think of someone who’s crying out to GOD for a companion.

Today before you complain about life –
Think of someone who went too early to heaven.

Before whining about the distance you drive –
Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.

And when you are tired and complain about your job –
Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.

And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down –
Put a smile on your face and think: you’re alive and still around.
