Lucky are you
You have a mouth that speaks
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You have ears that hear
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You have eyes that see
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
You have a mind that thinks/reasons/creates
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You have a nervous system that works
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You have lungs that breathe effortlessly
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You have a heart that beats/keeping you alive
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You have your health
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You have a place to live
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You have food/sustenance
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You have a job/gainful employment
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You woke up this morning
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you
Lucky are you
You are alive at this moment/celebrate!
You could be one of those
That aren't as blessed as you

"EMUNYAK ENKUTUK NAIRO" Lucky is the
one that has a mouth that speaks (Maa-
sai Proverb).

In other words, COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS.
