Appreciate

Appreciate those in your life.

Your mother, your nephew, your wife.

Thank them for what they do,

while they’re all here with you.

 

Let go of the fire meshed in your cells.

Listen to understand, not to yell.

We all grapple with the same ending.

We have no control, so stop pretending.

 

Life is short, time is fleeting.

Don’t just rush from meeting to meeting.

Stop to hear your own heart beating.

And, please, give your grandma a call this evening.

Be thankful for what you have.  You’ll end up having more.  If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you’ll never ever have enough. – Oprah Winfrey
