To be thankful

Scorpion786
By Scorpion786

The mess to clean after a party because it means I have been surrounded by
friends.

The taxes I pay because it means that I'm employed.

The clothes that fit a little too snug because it means I have enough to
eat.

My shadow who watches me work because it means I am out in the sunshine.

A lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need
fixing because it means I have a home.

The space I find at the far end of the parking lot because it means I am
capable of walking.

The piles of laundry and ironing because it means I have clothes to wear.

Weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day because it means I have
been productive.

The alarm that goes off in the early morning hours because it means that I'm
alive.

Getting too much email bogs me down but at least I know I have friends who
are thinking of me.

Even though I clutch my blanket and growl when The alarm rings, thank you,
God, 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, God, that I can see. Many are blind.

Even though I huddle in my bed and put off rising, thank you God, 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 and tempers are short, thank you, God, for My family. There are
many who are lonely.

Thank you God

After reading each and every single line of the post I said Alhamdo lillah!

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity, an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty :)(WC)
