"Life will bring you pain all by itself. Your responsibility is to create joy."

"Above all, you must maintain a positive mental attitude, looking for the good in every situation, and remain determined to be a completely positive person."~Brian Tracy


Poem Artwork

 
Life creates heartaches all by itself but you can’t let that get you down
Days are brighter and problems lighter if you don’t go throughout your life wearing a frown
 
If things aren’t going the way you like take a lighter look at the situation
Dwell not on problems but think of your blessings
And this will surely ease any and all of life’s frustrations
 
A sense of humor tends to breed laughter and life’s vexations create less disruption and surely serves to saved one from its depression
 
So make it a point to enter each day with a sense of humor and learn and grow from each situation
 
Your blood pressure runs lower and your life is happier and you thank God because you are glad for your creation
In short, a smile breeds a smile so why let that start with you?
 
 
"Above all, you must maintain a positive mental attitude, looking for the good in every situation, and remain determined to be a completely positive person."
