It's a Wonderful Life So Be Thankful and Treat It As a Blessing
This a wonderful life
So treat each as a blessing and be
truly thankful
Nothing on earth to complain
about from me here
Every day and moment in time is
truly a god sent and unaired blessing
Far more than I could ever possibly
deserve
As long as I have enough to sustain
me that alone being
Food and water and air to fill my
lungs so I can breathe
And the slightest possibility I can both
and may find love in the arms of another
And have children and a family of my own
that are physically healthy
I am therefore and that to me I considerer
and is the truest definition to me of wealthy
And no amount of money in the world
can ever buy that kind of satisfaction
or peace of mind
Everything most of all my own personal
happiness
Resides inside of me and is
in my own hands
If I simply let my head overrule my heart
And do not take all of life's pleasures
for granted
As if they will be here tomorrow and
somehow or other last forever
But rather choose to cherish them
as if tomorrow just may never come
And this may possibly be your last
day on this here planet earth
And you show everyone who means
something dear to you
That you are not only living your best
life for yourself
But for them and on their behalf too
as well
And life will so to be wonderful for
all after all
And happiness and joy will reign and
you will also have nothing or no actual
reason to complain about
And the sun will greet you every morning
when you awaken tomorrow and every
single day after that
When you get up to face and stare
another day
With a fresh beaming rainbow infused
smile upon your face
And most importantly of all with love
firmly entrenched in your soul and heart
Not only for yourself but for all others
who come across your path
