List - Don'T Forget To

Our lives are stuffed with things to do
So quickly time slips away
No matter what we're going through
These things we should do each day

Thank God a new day was given to you
A good morning smile or kiss for your spouse
Hug your children and grandchildren
Tell family and friends what they mean to you
Be the role model you should be
Show your pet whatever, how much you care
Feel the warmth of the sun's rays
Notice the morning dew before it's gone
Listen to the sounds of nature
Smell the roses (or daisies)
Taste life's precious moments
Give your neighbor a friendly wave or hello
Help others when and if you can
Be content with how you are blessed
Show patience, love, mercy, and grace
Always hold dear those close to you
Thank God for bringing you through another day
