I have a beautiful house,
the envy of many people…
But my neighbour’s house was bigger
So I was not happy…
I have an exoticgarden
with the fragrance of many blooms.
But my friend had rare excudive flowers
So I was not happy…
My signature for seven figures
will not bounce…
But my sister can sign for ten figures
So I was not happy…
My wardrobe was colourful and rich
But my cousin had shoes
to match each dress,
So I was not happy…
Then I looked down…
At the ragpickers with no shelter,
At the orphans with no clothing,
At the jobless with huge burdens,
And then I realised how lucky I am…
My prayers are now filled with gratitude!
