Why complain about your life?
Why do you complain?
If you think your life is hard,
and you experience pain-
beware, stand and stay guard.
Your life could be much more difficult
Just think of all that has gone right-
Of all that’s good instead of at fault,
Everything that has made your life bright.
Those who did amazing deeds and
became great- they never did complain
they wrote all their difficulties in sand
and made sure their happiness did stain.
Whatever life threw at them,
They threw it back at life.
They made lemonade from lemons
and took advantage of their strife.
Maybe, you too could do the same
Do more than you were meant to.
Don’t burden life with blame.
You could. Tell me hero, will you?
For no reason you do complain?
If you think your life is hard,
and you experience pain-
beware, stand and stay guard.
