Today.

"TODAY
Be grateful now for little things.
The flowers, a tree, a bird that sings.
For friends and loved ones far and near
For health, for strength, for all held dear.
And thank the Lord, to whom we pray,
Whose love goes with us every day.
Just try your best in all you do
And the best in turn comes back to you.
Be grateful, thankful, loving, kind
And joy in living each day you'll find.
Whate'er you do, whenever you go,
Trust in the Lord. He loves you so."

Art Murray

So much to be grateful for! Thanks vanilla for the pleasant reminder!

Great poem, Sometimes we tend to forget to be thankful, thanks for sharing.

A beautiful inspiring poem Vanilla. I love to read this sort of poetry which reminds us of the blessings in our lives. It is human nature that we take things for granted and need a nudge now and again.

Thank you all, so true, sometimes we do become blind to nature even though its right there in front of us.

yes im beginning to be very grateful for what i have,and only ask for things i need and enough of everything to go around for all my animals. this poem makes you stop and pray.

I think sometimes we need to keep coming back to this poem, if only as a daily reminder.
