Simple Request

This is a simple request…..

If you appreciate life, send this to your friends, including the
person who sent it to you!

Even though I clutch my blanket and growl when the alarm rings,
thank you, Lord, that I can hear. There are many who are deaf.

Even though I keep my eyes closed against the morning light as
long as possible, thank you, Lord, that I can see. Many are blind.

Even though I huddle in my bed and put off rising, thank you
Lord, that I have the strength to rise. There are many who are
bedridden.

Even though the first hour of my day is hectic, when socks are
lost, toast is burned and tempers are short, my children are so loud,
thank you, Lord, for My family. There are many who are lonely.

Even though our breakfast table never looks like the pictures
in magazines and the menu is at times unbalanced, thank you, Lord, for
the food we have. There are many who are hungry;

Even though the routine of my job often is monotonous, thank you,
Lord, for the opportunity to work. There are many who have no job.

Even though I grumble and bemoan my fate from day to day and
wish my circumstances were not so modest, thank you, Lord, for life.

Pass this on to the friends you know, it might help a bit to
make this world a better place to live in, right? PASS IT ON…..

A friend is someone we turn to
When our spirits need a lift.
A friend is someone we treasure.
For friendship is a gift,
A friend is someone who fills our lives with Beauty, Joy, and
Grace
And makes the world we live in A Better and Happier Place.
YOU ARE MY FRIEND AND I AM HONORED!

Now send this to every friend you have!!
This was sent to me by a friend, and is now passed on to YOU,
my friend.

P.S. And…families are the best friends we can ever have!
