Lyrics of being happy with what you have, someone else may have it worse
MMMM - Crash Test Dummies
Once there was this kid who
Got into an accident and couldn't come to school
But when he finally came back
His hair had turned from black into bright white
He said that it was from when
The cars had smashed so hard
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Once there was this girl who
Wouldn't go and change with the girls in the change room
But when they finally made her
They saw birthmarks all over her body
She couldn't quite explain it
They'd always just been there
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
But both girl and boy were glad
'Cause one kid had it worse than that
'Cause then there was this boy whose
Parents made him come directly home right after school
And when they went to their church
They shook and lurched all over the church floor
He couldn't quite explain it
They'd always just gone there
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

Silly parents, you don't have to sit through some boring sermon for that, just go 12hrs without a glass of wine while doing things that are fun. Just make some one can drive you home.

You got a very good point there :) I agree, the sermons ARE boring. I rarely got a message out of my previous pastor because he was always condoning (?) homosexuals and 'cross dressers'.

Love the Dummies.
But I've never understood why someone else having it worse is supposed to make anyone feel better.

You should feel thankful for what you have, because you *could have been* born deformed, or have no parents and abandoned, etc, just lots of things could have happened to you, but thankfully it didn't. You're still living and breathing. So be glad. That's all I was trying to say.
