My having traveled this world five times easy
If I wanted to put it all in some kind of line
And Ive seen places that to live in would kill me
And yet the souls there were all doing simply fine
Im living in a country now where disaster lives
And at times of year its a way of natural life
And yet complain of it not one ever in life does
And they are experiencing lifes greatest ever strife
Their attitudes here are Godly and positive ever so
And yet Ive heard those so well off complain always
Because of some little thing in life went for them wrong
I know in my heart and soul which of the two Id praise
Im older than I ever thought I would be in this life
And healthier than I was fifteen years ago as it goes
But I am still learning things they dont teach in school
And university life is making sure I am one who knows
With open eyes and an open mind and some insight as well
I admire so I do these wonderful God loving souls that be
By example how they all teach an old dog new tricks I tell.
