We are often discontented
and much dissatisfied
That our wish for recognition
has not been gratified.
We feel that we've been cheated
in beauty, charm, and brains
And we think of all our "losses"
and forget all about our "gains"
And dwelling on the things we lack
we grow miserable inside
Brooding over our "deficits"
that are born of selfish pride
We begin to harbor resentment
and envy fills our heart
That we do not possess the things
that make others "seem so smart"
And in our condemnation
of the traits that we possess
We magnify our painful plight
and sink deeper in distress.
Oh, Lord, forgive our foolishness
our vanity, and pride
As we strive to please the eye of man
and not GOD who sees "INSIDE"
And little do we realize
how contented we would be
If we knew that we are "BEAUTIFUL"
when our hearts are touched by THEE! Author Unknown To Me
