My kind of writing!
Positivity is vastly underestimated, state of mind is something I think most people believe they have no control over, but once understood lives change for the better.
Powerful and simple - appreciate
Thanks
Thanks G84 ~ Pleased you enjoyed ~ most people (even some MPS members !) are too fatalistic and just lay down & suffer & die ! The things I give thanks for Clean Air ~ Pure Water ~ Adequate Food & Shelter for ALL are within our control ~ We need to strive to sustain the equilibrium of Planet Earth and be more positive (in caring & sharing) the resources of Planet Earth ! Developed Hi Tech Countries like the UK & the USA not only exploit the Earth Resources they waste them ~ While many in the Developing Countries are Hungry ~ Deprived and lack Sanitation & Education. We need POSITIVITY and EQUALITY ! The fault lies not with GOD who designed an abundant EARTH ~ but MAN who is greedy & selfish & careless ~ Thanks BRIAN Please check my FUSION on HOLIDAYS ~ you have to click on DEVELOPING to see it and add a POEM ~ Thanks B !
A fine write Brian.
Thanks STEVE ~ I knew this would tick your "Praise 'n Poem" box ~ Yours BRIAN
You are asking me to be positive, I am thankful each day for the joy of my wonderful life in spite of its problems. Good write Brian.
WELL ANDY ~ You know what my Mantra is "Count your Blessings name them one by one .................... !" Whenever I do that my Blessings always far outweigh my Disappointments ! Because ANGELA is 11 hours ahead in NZ we only get a small window (each morning & evening) when we can talk on SKYPE ~ I could get uptight about it but because we are both very busy it is enough ! You are a great example to us because you stay personal and your poems and comments are an encouragement to all ! Yours as always ~ BRIAN !
I'm always thankful - fine work Brian
THANKS MICHAEL ~ Mt epitaph for you would be (in 20+ years time !) R.I.P. Hear lies a contented Man ! Pleased you enjoyed it Yours BRIAN
Ah I like that.
Mio Caro Amico BRIAN,
Io ringrazio Dio ogni giorno!
A great write my friend!
We are blessed to have been given the gift and the opportunity to say thank you with every breath we take!
Abbracci e Baci per te ed Angela...
~Laura~
CIAO LAURA ~ Nostra Cara Amica ~ Grazie per aver aggiunto la mia poesia come preferito ! We need to thank GOD for all His blessings OGNI GIORNO ! I have spoken to ANGELA en Noueva Zealanda and she is really enjoying her job as a PHYSIOTHERAPIST~ she has some continuing patients but has three New Ones following KNEE TRANSPLANT Surgery and they need a lot of TLC (Tender Loving Care) to get them fully mobile again ~ she sends her LOVE ~ Abbracci e Baci di BRIAN ed ANGELA XOXOX Please add a Poem to my FUSION on HOLIDAYS ~ Grazie B !
Thank you for the beautiful reminder... We only have one life and being thankful to being able to wake up each morning is a blessing within itself.
THANKS CLARITA ~ It is very true we should be much more thankful for all the things and opportunities we HAVE instead of grumbling about the things we HAVEN'T ! Holiness with contentment is great gain ~ AMEN Yours BRIAN ~ Please check today's Poem ~ OCTOPUS !
Great one Brian--gives me a lot to reflect on. I am giving thanks right now! Sister Christina
HI SISTER CHRISTINA ~ Nice to hear you are accentuating the POSITIVE ! I could get uptIght about ANGELA being 11,000 miles away in NEW ZEALAND but instead I rejoice every day that She & Ruth have the opportunity to work for a YEAR in one of the most Beautiful Cities in the WORLD ~ Auckland and to meet the Maoris ~ Nose to Nose ~ AMEN. Thanks for your comment Brother BRIAN ~ Hugs @@@@@@@
