BE GLAD

I'm glad for it's a beautiful day
For it's a day for a new beginning
To restart but more aware than yesterday
I'm glad I made it
For it's a day our God as made
So i'll rejoice and be glad in it
Even amidst circumstances
Gratitude is a gateway
For more, to be happy
Is to be free from external outcome

I am glad for breath without stress
I breath in life from source
Out life for plants

I'm glad, for love
I find lovely people allover me
Showering on me unconditional love
Elevating and awakening me to the truth

I'm gad, for the roof over my head
God blesses the source of creativity
I would have been sleeping on the streets

I'm glad, for I have clothes to wear
To  cover the scars of life
Uncovers the beauty to be portrayed

I'm glad, for I have food to eat
Surviving here is not easy
while thriving and striving
In Africa, Nigeria to be precise

I'm glad, for I am healthy
Healthy without medicines
the remedy for another illness
A apple, a day away from the doctor

I'm glad, For companion
I always find company in my path
Making my journey worthwhile

I'm glad, for the living
Respect the dead 
Support the living
As it's not easy to be outcast
So, it's not easy to strive

I'm glad, when they said I can't do it
I am possible, nothing impossible 
Whatever I put my minds to
I always push through

I'm glad, for water
The source of life
To drink
To bath
For cleaning clothes 
And more

I'm glad for the sun
The source of light
In the day
healing absorbed energy
From others 
It helps me dry my clothes

I'm glad for the moon
The source of magic
The light at night
The womb of earth

I'm glad for the stars
They makes the galaxy beautiful
Makes a lot of memories
While stargazing

I'm glad for the nights
I find time for myself again
Time to ease on me
From all the stress
Caused by the day

I am glad for the 
Blessings I can't see
Post but can feel
On the way

Be glad so 
You don't get depressed
Over life issues
Others opinion
Unknown


Be glad, for there's always
Something to be grateful for
If not LIFE!?
Be grateful for God
For the sun as risen
Because nothing
Is above our Father 
Almighty in Heaven
