Today I'Ll Be Happy

Today will be a good day. I won't complain and moan, About the things that I don't have, Count curses all alone. Instead I'll count my blessings, Thank Him for what is mine, Appreciate what He has done, To make my life sublime; For others do not have the things, That I just take for granted, Good food, good clothes, a place to live, It's really as I planned it. Though everything is not the way, I'd have it, truth to tell, He's satisfied my every need, Most wants supplied as well. I have all I really need. I really can't complain. Though some have more, it's still just fine, For we aren't all the same. We each are blessed according to, What's best for you and me. It's personal and custom made, For personalities. For Being Happy Contest by Carol Brown
