Hello Jen... wow, that is a great CinQuain with depths of meaning. Your verse will hit home to each of your readers. We all are tempted with selfishness. Great job and good luck.

Excellent, though it is sad that we can give ourselves a boost at the cost of someone else it is also very helpful to know our woes are not the worst that people have to suffer, very well written and best wishes for your contest****kahpot

You never know what is going in with someone until you hear it or see someone is in worse shape than others. You might tell some one you are fine but inside you are hurting mentally or physically.

This is a thought I've had so many times, and you creatively placed it in a cinquain. Good job! There's nothing like seeing someone who could really feel self pity not showing it. I hope it does well in the contest.

The author's words are heartfelt, clear, interesting, descriptive and
creative. I pondered on these words and as the author says so clearly
I think about someone who has so much more to deal with. Then I find I have nothing to feel sad about. Great artwork and great message!

Ah! That does put everything into perspective when we see others who are suffering much more. Even more humbling is when those who are suffering more are taking life with such grace. Great messages in the contest! Best wishes in the contest!

Your well-written, moving poem describes an experience that I feel sure most people have had. I've certainly been there, done that. I think God places these people and situations in our paths to wake us up and make us aware of our blessings--by making us a bit ashamed of ourselves, just for a while!

Hello Jen,
It's easy to let the worries of this life get us down. This is a great reminder to be thankful for all the great things that we enjoy every day. Those who have passed on are no longer able to enjoy any of them. There will always be those who have more than us and those who have less. To be grateful for what we have is satisfying and pleasing to God I believe. Thanks so much for sharing this thought provoking poem.
Have a blessed day.
Tom
