This piece really has inspired me. I love the message you've conveyed here. Every stanza is interesting and gives readers some positive boost.
Fantastic poem. First stanza is my favourite. Well... it starts with a bang! :)

True words the only trouble is some can't, some don't want to and the rest say it is to much work to.

What a wonderful thought provoking piece you have penned.

So you see when things are going not quite like they should
Sit and think of all the positive things, we've actually got it quite good
So dear reader open your eyes and you too will discover
Your cup runneth over!

So many times we are so busy feeling sorry for ourselves we forget to look at the blessings we do have. It is the smallest treasures in life that bring us the most happiness.
Great job!
Take Care

Grant,

You know when you read, or see something that sends a rush through you, well, your words have just done that to me. The line, my cup runneth over did this to me and it's meaning, although explained compounded this feeling.

We are truly fortunate for all the things we have right under our nose, the sad thing is that we often take such things completely for granted!

Well done my friend for high-lighting such pleasures and reminding us all that we should be grateful for them and why not push the boat out, go on tell them that you appreciate them, especially if they are a partner!!

This is a wonderful reminder! Thank you, God's been teaching me more about this recently. Again this is excellent. (:

Amen. Words of wisdom that everyone should heed. When you look at what you do have in life, you realize that you are not doing a bad as you thought. Thanks for the reminder.
