Short piece about being thankful for what you have.
Life. Sometimes I hate it. Don't we all?
Seems we're the only one to trip and fall.
Everyone around us is perfectly fine,
And we always think, "Why can't their life be mine?"

"Things would be great if I could have that."
We're never happy with our lives where they're at.
Why can't we ever be filled with gratitude,
Instead of flaunting an unthankful attitude?

I've learned to love my life every day,
And I will be thankful, come what may.
So people please, take a look at what you've got,
And remind yourselves that you do have a lot.
