I awake into a new day
And I immediately open two gifts,
Two gifts that I always have,
I open my eyes.
Two more gifts come to me
As I hear natures symphony
Coming through my ears.
I arise from my bed
And stand on two more presents
As my legs walk me around.
My day has started like all my days
With gifts given to me
That take me through my life,
My wonderful life,
From beginning to end,
And for this I am grateful,
So very grateful.
Be thankful for these gifts,
Do not take them for granted
As there are many in this world
Who do not have these gifts,
And those of us who have,
Must cherish them every moment.

A booze of positivity and gratitude to start the day
Nothing better to kick start and uplift the gloomy mood

You're right. My mobility is giving probs at the moment, so easily taken for granted.
Thank you d a, I do hope your mobility improves and then we can go and run that marathon - or am I thinking of eating a marathon. LOL
