IT’S THE SAME OLD SONG

0717211502: Contrary to popular belief, need, desire, expectation, demand… WE ARE NOT ALL ALIKE! You may be a great money maker, but a lousy parent, while the person you’re criticizing may be a lousy money maker, and a great parent! We all have our strengths and weaknesses -only mankind seems to have determined for himself which ones are more (or less) valid. And of course the ones with greater validity seem to equate to the person with those particular strengths being (more) qualified to look down on others who happen to be weak in that (or other) particular area(s). 🤷‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

One more thing, I have observed often times that when people are not themselves in a difficult situation, they find it very easy to look down upon, ridicule, or criticize people who are. What is even more ironic (hypocritical actually), is some people have the nerve to do so when they themselves, at some point in the past, have been in precisely the same predicament (I’m quite sure at certain times in my own life I too am guilty*).

*At this moment I’m thinking to myself not only is there atleast a grain of truth in each and every one of these writings -and with regard to many of these so-called criticisms, it is not only likely, but a fact that I too am guilty!

•Title credited to the great songwriting team Holland-Dozier-Holland; and sung by the legendary group “The Four Tops”.
