Look For Something To Admire
"In everyday look for something to admire,
And if hard pressed just go and acquire
A little bit of happiness,
For the shops are filled with lovely gifts
Window shopping can be fun,
And your wallet is full of money when your done
It may not have the material satisfaction,
Or a designer bags reaction
But it gives you the chance to dream,
Of wearing all those pretty things it seems
You don’t have to carry all those heavy bags,
Or take scissors to cut of the tags
All the nice things are in your head,
And not in your closet instead.
So let it be said happiness is your own making,
It’s not at the mall for taking
So then it’s better to embrace the day,
And find happiness your own way
Not to buy it off a rack,
Or take something home in a sack
Just look around and appreciate life’s gifts,
Including your hearts up lift
That goodness resides in you,
And happiness, it’s true
You need to look to farther than inside,
To know that’s were God resides.
