For a lawn that needs mowing,
plants that need pruning,
windows that need cleaning,
and walls that need repainting,
because it means I have a house to come home to;
For all the complaining
I hear about the government (thanks to their inefficiencies)
because it means
we have freedom of speech (though not necessarily after);
For the banks, offices and shops within walking distance
because it means I can choose to walk, and I am capable of walking;
For the lady and gentleman who sing karaoke daily (in neighbour's entertainment room)
who sing off key
because it means
I can hear (and not tone deaf);
For the pile of laundry (to be dried, collected and sorted)
because it means
I have clothes to wear;
For weariness and aching muscles (being old more than anything else)
at the end of the day
because it means
I have been capable of working hard;
For the crows of castrated cockerels (neighbour's enterprise for Chinese New Year)
in the early morning hours
because it means I am alive;
And finally, for too much E-mail (clogging up my mailbox because I can't open them)
because it means
I have friends who are thinking of me (thank you).
(from someone's work, edited to suit my circumstances)
Government fed by the people
Career options
I suggest government... because nobody has ever been caught.
Corruption so prevalent it affects English language?
Corruption is so prevalent it affects English language?
When there's too much dirt...
We need better tools... to cover up mega corruptions.
Prevent bullying now!
