Grateful

Being grateful is the rage, but

Being grateful is an selfish act

To be grateful for your blessings

When the world around burns

To be grateful for your well being

When your fellow beings are sick

To be grateful for your material comforts

When the societal inequality is exploding

To be grateful for your life

When conflicts ravage people at world’s other end

To be grateful is to be in oblivion

  1. have to disagree here. All those things are true. However it is no reason not to be grateful, this point leads to no improvement for anybody or anything.
