Every day, be thankful for what you have and who you are.
Even though I clutch my blanket and growl when the alarm
rings.
Thank you, Lord, that I can hear. There are many who are deaf.
Even though I keep my eyes closed against the morning
light as long as possible.
Thank you, Lord, that I can see. Many are blind.
Even though I huddle in my bed and put off rising.
Thank
you, Lord, that I have the strength to rise. There are many who are bedridden.
Even though the first hour of my day is hectic, when socks
are lost, toast is burned, tempers are short, and my children are so loud.
Thank you, Lord, for my family. There are many who are
lonely.
Even though our breakfast table never looks like the
picture in magazines and the menu is at times unbalanced.
Thank you, Lord, for
the food we have. There are many who are hungry.
Even though the routine of my job often is monotonous.
Thank you, Lord, for the opportunity to work. There are many who have no job.
Even though I grumble and bemoan my fate from day to day
and wish my circumstances were not so modest. Thank you, Lord, for life.
A friend is someone we turn to when our spirits need a
lift.
A friend is someone to treasure.
For friendship is a gift. A friend is someone who fills
our lives with Beauty, Joy and Grace and makes the world we live in a better
and happier place.
YOU ARE MY FRIEND!
God bless you and yours.
"Be kind to everyone you meet, for
everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."
