Be Grateful

Be grateful you have work, be diligent and do not that work shirk. Be grateful you have a home consider the untold homeless thousands who through the streets roam. Be grateful for your small income and do not resort to feeling glum, consider the many who have none. Be grateful for friends and family, for love and enduring beauty. Consider the many whose lives are lived so bleakly. Be grateful for good health, envy not those with great wealth consider this may have been obtained thro' deviousness or stealth. All that you have, all that you are, appreciate before it becomes to late. And for others never cease to pray, how bright then becomes your day./
