Gratitude Of Life.

Goldfinch60



I look at my life and think,

I may not have all I want in life

But I do have all I need,

A roof over my head,

Food on the table,

Friends to be with

And share our lives,

A partner who loves me

And who I love.

I do not need anything else

So I feel so lucky,

So lucky to live my life,

Live my life that way it is,

And for that I am so grateful.
