Sometimes, when you give with good heart intentions, another a pat on the back--and--COMPLIMENT
They --can --so--abruptly --and --rudely, --unappreciatively--suddenly-- turn --on --you,-- and --cause --you --disappoint--and--resent,-- with --DENT
As this mornin at the GYM, an older gentleman, that i have spoken to a time or two,--BEFORE
I --was --just --talking --friendly --with --HIM--and --HE--was,-- just --telling --ME--in--detail--all--about --his --daily--exercise--routine --and --MORE
So his routine every early morn he runs in p,ace in the water for three hours --five --days--a--week--DAILY
He said, he had gained twenty pounds, and his struggles with his weight, he was telling ME,--- actually,--I--could --tell-- HE--had --gained --some --weight --from --the --last --time --we --spoke --HIM--and--ME
So -i -was -just -PATIENTLY -listening -to-HIM-, talking -and -explaining -HIMSELF-and -situation, -and --having -one -kidney, -and -situation, -and --DAILY--ROUTINE--to --ME
So --then, --i --started --to --tell --HIM--what --has --been --working --for --ME-- and --in --an --INSTANT, --he --up --and --left, --and --TURNED ---on--ME--FAST--and--FURIOUS--and--out--of--there---FREE
So-i- thought- to -MYSELF-, and -i-felt- bad -and -sad,- and -i -told -him -as -HE-was -so-angrily-, upsettingly --quickly--walking --AWAY
That --i --was --just --trying--to--tell--HIM--what --has--been--and--is --working --for --ME-- BUT--it --REALLY--REALLY--REALLY--upset,-- and --disturbed-- him --in --every--WAY,-- and-- it --still --bothers --ME-- cause --i--KNOW-- i --MESSED-- up --his---DAY
Oh ---lord, ---i ---HAVE---to ---just---PRAY
And -am -really--so--tierd-- of --being --taken --wrong --by --others-- in --every--WAY--seems--like--lately--EVERYDAY
When -this -gentleman, -he -walked- away-, he -said -to -ME-in -leaving, -- -YOU---. Are. ---SIXTY---. And.-- Im ---SEVENTY-ONE-----and ---HE---told ---ME--- that-- i --looked --older --than-- HIM--and----SEVENTY--TWO
Oh --LORDIE--LORDIE--LORD--its --just--so--upsetting, --unsettling--, but --now --as --im --a --thinkin--and--a--writing --almost-- a --FUNNY--, and --just --what --can --ya--say--or---do--with--some--folks----TOO
So -i -resort -to -my--FOUNDATION,- and -i, -humbly---Quietly--SAY
Oh --dear-- LORD, --this --PERSON--, he ----PROBABLY---has-- PROBLEMS----so --MUCH--GREATER-- than-- ME--and --i --WILL--just --PRAY, --for--him,-- in----EVERY---WAY
