Someone Did It For You

In this life here upon the planet earth there’s always something to be thankful when we sit down and think about it be grateful as you sit on that stool There’s much made by someone else maybe even so many years ago that you are now benefiting from even this pen and it’s ink that flow That person who did all the making did not know who’d enjoy it’s reward when this would be or to how many? even to what effect it struck a chord But they did it for whatever reason not knowing what was behind it all for one day in some future time it would make someone feel real tall So remember all the good things that you are blessed truly by be thankful for the hand of craft who had made it for you and I (' Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago ' - Warren Buffet )
