Every day we open our eyes we should just take a moment
To reflect on our lives, across its many components
We may feel unhappy and feel we’ve not achieved a lot
We always end up focusing on what we haven’t got!
Ask yourself some questions to banish negativity
Are you fit and healthy and able to do activities
Your body may ache and you be a little slower
Your belly may be rounded and hang a little lower
Do you have a roof over you and your family’s heads?
So you can all lie warm and safe in your comfy beds
Did you have a meal today and food upon your table?
Did you get about today, as much as you were able
We may not all be slim, fit, toned and “appear” perfect
We all come in different shapes and sizes last time I checked
Don’t be fooled by social media images that bombard you
Remember must of them are edited and really aren’t true
So just be grateful you are here, alive and breathing
Don’t waste your time being sad, angry and seething
