THINK OF ME

poverty

Think of me

Me who sleeps

Sleeps in filth

Filth which reeks pain

Pain which kills

Kills innocent souls

Souls which help

Help in shaping this world

World of chaos

Chaos which makes way

Way for more suffering

Suffering of sadness

Sadness which kills

Kills the soul

Soul which leads

Leads to the spirit

Spirit of the ancestors

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)

Just imagine the struggle these souls go through just to live another day… I see weakness in body but strength in spirit.

People tell you, that when you think you’ve got it rough, to remember those who have it a hell of a lot worse than you do. That never helped me. The thought has only ever made me more depressed. Because sure, we’ve all got it rough sometimes, but goddamnit, there is no justice in a world where children can starve to death. Such a thought never has and never will make me feel any better.

And I hope all will have thoughts like yours Johnny. It’s tough knowing the ridiculous things many people say about the poor even when children are involved. It is amazing how many people take advantage of their pain and sad how these little angels suffer through no fault of theirs. I always say thoughts count a lot. Blessings.
