Embarrassed by Riches
That old phrase, An embarrassment of riches, aptly describes
Most everyone I know.
Everyone I know, has a place to live.
Everyone I know, has a meal every day.
Everyone I know, has a friend or two.
Everyone I know, has too many choices.
But, not everyone I know is grateful.
Some that I know want
A grander place to live.
A fancier meal.
Even more choices.
I’m relieved they are satisfied with their friends.
I’m relieved I have more than enough.
