Love, Love, Love

For the cold-hearted businessman around
Have you ever thought that your workers are sad?
Every simple thing that your workers have made
You are getting mad because they are a failure.

For the rich lady who is up all night in the club
Hanging out with her friends, shopping and laughing
Have you ever thought that your family is waiting for you?
Have you ever thought that they are worried about you?

For the selfish daughter who is still thinking of her pride
Ignoring the street sweeper who is her mother
Have you ever thought that she is doing that for you?
For you to have clothes to wear and food to eat.

Why will you be cold-hearted?
Why aren't you staying with your family instead of the club?
Why are you so selfish and elitist?
The world doesn't revolve around you; you should rotate with her.

Some people are like that
But who are we to hate them?
Who are we to accuse them?
We are all people, with secrets, failures and weakness.

Do not pick the one that you will love
Because God loves us with His heart
Knowing that we have sins
Knowing that we hate others.

He loves everyone
The robber, snatcher and even the kidnapper
He loves me, you, and everyone
So instead of hating just love them.
