Wearing Other People's Shoes

There is so much devastation going on in the world right now and the news has made me realize that our life is a true blessing.  We should remember that we never know the pain of others until we walk in their shoes.  Listen as I stand among the souls that are hurting.

                       My shoes do not fit today, they are not mine
                       They are filled with mud and water
                       They will wade through the floods for a long time
                       The shoes will have to take me where I will go today
                    
                       Where are my shoes that I knew so well
                       The shoes that I wore when life was perfect
                       The shoes that I wore when life was happy
                       When will I see them again

                      I see how people judge me when my shoes do not fit
                      The pain of others suffering is placed upon my feet
                      The truth is I got to choose the shoes I wore today
                      I wanted to feel the pain of  people's shoes that were not mine

                      My shoes do not fit today they are not mine
                      They are the shoes to keep me humble
                      They are shoes to teach me the blessings of life
                      The shoes will take me places to feel the pain of others

                      My shoes will fit tomorrow, they will be my own 
                      I hope you can understand that my life belongs to me
                      I hope you will not judge me for wearing my own shoes
                      My life is not perfect, but they are my shoes
