It is Friday and I’m sure you have complained endlessly since Monday! Take a moment out and think about all the things and people that you are grateful for today. Maybe you can even send them this poem!
Thank you for coming into my life
Because you opened a new world for me
Thank you for loving me
Because it makes me feel appreciated
Thank you for caring
Because it shows
There is still someone left that is good
Thank you for being a companion
Because it helps me through ups and downs
Thank you for being there
Because it makes me feel safe
Thank you for your warmth
Because it defrosts my heart
Thank you for understanding
Because it gives me the strength to go on
But most especially,
Thank you for your love
Because it is heaven on earth.
