Acceptance Poem by Marilyn Lott

It’s so easy for us to criticize
Others for what they do
I think we all are guilty
Don’t you feel this is true?

The way folks lead their lives
The way they raise their kids
But we can’t see the real truth
So we need to accept instead

We all are very different
And we want that to be so
And when we judge others
We don’t know all we think we know

So perhaps we need to remember
As we sit in judgment each day
Pause and think carefully till
We have something nice to say!
