Thankful Tanka

appreciation,
     receiving food and shelter,
           opportunity,
     supportive family, friends;
don’t waste this chance existence.

Wise words, Phil. Sometimes people tend to forget (or ignore) the fact that there is so much which we ought to be thankful for. ~ Regards // paul

Good advice; I thank you Brother. Shalom shalom and Happy Holy Week. SUNLITE WANTER has an outstanding poem, Maundy Thursday, and a must-read. FYI. Blessings
