Attitude

Don’t dismiss those daily chores

That seem a task for you;

Take joy in mundane matters

That you are charged to do.

Enjoy your babysitting

And watch the young ones grow—

They’ll take you back to places

Where older folks don’t go

Appreciate the humdrum

And things you do each day;

Don’t begrudge–be bitter—

Just find a better way.

There’ll always be new problems

With relationships and health—

Where money seems to disappear—

But happiness is wealth.
