Other People's Problems
Everyone has problems,
Some with which we can relate
And others which we do not think
That we could navigate.
If we learn of situations
Way outside of what we know,
Then we hope our shock or
Overwhelming sadness doesn’t show.
Yet for problems more familiar,
How we handle them’s unique,
For one person’s best solution
May not be the one we seek.
It makes sense with people’s problems
Not to argue or condone
Since we each must struggle mightily
With problems of our own.
