Some only look for differences
Ignore the common ground
Their validation comes from
Putting other people down
Others have a different view
Of the world in which they live
Never asking any more
Than they’re prepared to give
For there’s good and bad around us
In every walk of life
Choose the good – avoid the bad
Who thrive on causing strife
Don’t bang your head against a wall
Trying to make a door
To paraphrase Coco Chanel’s famous quote
I’ve used oft times before
Be with those who get you
The ones who are on your side
If others fail to see your worth
They’re simply not part of your tribe
