Positive Attitude

A positive attitude is hard to keep
When all you want to do is weep
Trying to meet each day with a smile 
When your heart is hurting all the while
Thinking positively will make your day
Brighter, sweeter, as you find your way
Focusing on the good and the true
Will chase away those feelings so blue
You must act much better than you feel
Though your heart may be broken still
Show others only your shining face
Let frowns and tears leave no trace
If you can accomplish this one goal
You will greatly benefit your precious soul
