Be Content

There are times you don’t feel contented
With life you have, you feel disoriented

You tend to regret your past decision
And head towards a hazy direction

Doing so, you fail to appreciate
The good life already laid on your plate 

If only you’ll see greatness in small things
You’ll find the blessing of joy that life brings

Keep the faith and look at the brighter side
Ponder on precious life you set aside

Value what you have and open your eyes
You are blessed more than you realize
