Book with pen and writing "Today I am grateful"

In the darkness of the night,

or the brightness of the day

 

In the depths of the sea,

or the heights of the sky

 

In the silence of the streets,

or the chaos of the house

 

I am forever grateful for everyone and everything.

 

This mere feeling of gratitude,

overrides the inevitable solitude in our hearts

 

It has the ability to turn sadness and happiness,

a house into a home, an enemy into a friend

 

It can turn helplessness into helpfulness,

failure into success, procrastination into productivity

 

Evil into Good

 

Therefore, I am grateful for my family, friends and teachers.
 

By surviving we are thriving,

And by appreciating we are creating,

 

Creating a better world for the rest of us,

 

Those of us that are left.

The struggle ends when the gratitude begins.
