I found this on the internet, author unknown:
Think of the things that maake you happy
Not of the things that make you sad
Think of the fine and true in mankind
Not the sordid side and bad
Think of the blessings that surround you
Not the ones that are denied
Think of the virtues of your friendships
Not the weak and faulty side
Think of the gains you've made in business
Not the losses you've incurred
Think of the good of you that's spoken
Not some cruel hostile word
Think of the days of health and pleasure
Not the days of hurt and pain
Think of the days alive with sunshine
Not the dismal days of rain
Think of the hopes that lie before you
Not the waste that lies behind
Think of the treasures you have gathered
Not the ones you failed to find
Think of the service you may render
Not the serving self alone
Think of the happiness of others
Aand in this you'll find your own!
Amen!
Thankfullness for what we have is a wonderful thing.
