Positive Thinking

The news these days is all about depression, upset and stress,
Some people feel like their lives are such a mess,
I guess I am a lucky one, I don't often get down or really blue,
I am able to turn my mind to see everything in a brighter hue,
Some try using a coping mechanism,
Where I guess I see things through a different prism,
On the nights when I just can't sleep,
I don't waste my time by trying to count sheep,
I think of loved ones and have a gentle talk,
Then imagine I am going for a summer hazed walk.
