Because I have been given much I too must give...
Because I have been sheltered, fed by thy good care…
I cannot see another’s lack and I not share-
my glowing fire, my loaf of bread-my roof’s safe shelter over head,
that he too may be comforted.
Truly for almost all of us that live in the United States, we have it great. People complain about the economy and jobs and whatever else. It's true that things are not as good as they could be, or not as good as they were. But tell me someone who goes hungry at night? Tell me someone who does not have shelter over their head?
We have so much in this country and expect to get so much. We need to accept that we have things great and give it to our neighbors.
Lastly, I am tired of hearing about rich people that want to be taxed. George Clooney and all his hollywood friends had a fundraiser for Barack Obama and raised some 15 million dollars. Please, take that money and help out someone. Randomly give out your money. I know for myself, I could live the rest of my life in comfort with just 5 million dollars. I would take every penny above and beyond that 5 million and give it to people.
