There are times in our lives when things go wrong
When we blame others and things for these things
Is it because we have not the wealth or the fame
Or is because we did not work harder or more
Tell me what does wealth have to do with it??
What have others and things got that change it
Will fame bring you joy? or wealth bring pleasure
If you work harder will it make things better?
There are places in this world that are awful
Where the living in such ways can be no joy
I have lived in some that have been so woeful
But place has no meaning, its people that count
Let us count our blessing as poor as they may be
Lets be grateful for the roof we have over our head
For the bed in which we sleep and are safe and warm
For the food that we have to nourish our bodies
Let us be thankful for someone is there love us
Be it woman or man, child or adult, it matters not
For in the loving comes the caring, and sharing
Two lives can be blessed by counting the rest
Lets forget the past and all that we you had
We can look forward to all thats to be gained
Life will not always be this bad way for us
Lets learn to enjoy all that we have today
We can learn to be at peace with ourselves
And leave all the past, with its sad memories
For life will go on in its own special way
Lets leave our regrets and get on with life
All regrets need to fade as together we face today
Tomorrow for us is a brand new day to be alive
Where we can help each other to walk the talk
And live the walk in peace and joy, you and I
