Be Thankful

Be thankful that you don’t already have
everything you desire
If you did, what would there be
to look forward to?

Be thankful when you don’t know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn
Be thankful for the difficult times
During those times you grow

Be thankful for your limitations,
Because they give you opportunities for
improvement

Be thankful for each new challenge,
Because it will build your strength and character

Be thankfulfor your mistakes,
they will teach you valuable lessons

Be thankful when you’re tired and weary,
because it means you’ve made an effort

It’s easy to be thankful for the good things
A life of rich fulfilment comes to those
who are also thankful for the setbacks
Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they will become your blessings.
