Campaign 2016

The first rule is easy.... It is not hard to love a God The second rule is much harder to obey If my neighbor is perfect...as often I think I am We find loving each other as easy as loving God Many are so strange...so hard to love... Impossible to even like It would be easier if they weren't so much poorer than me Even got a job Spoke my language, went to better schools Or even went to school Made some smart investments...voted the right way...and were all the same color as me Didn't trespass on my lawn or need a hand out or made do With what their employer is willing to pay for their labor Than I could Love them as myself.
