We must have forgot

You could have been born dead

But here you are

Tonight, you could die in your sleep or crash into another car

Everybody can’t be a star

Or smart, talented, beautiful, and rich

Wanting what others got is a trip!

Maybe your dream spouse is a jerk

Maybe one’s reality takes real work

But what if, what you have right now

Is your best ever blessing, but how?

'If this is it... mmm bop, you wanna knnnoow,' like Huey Lewis and the News back in 1983?

The world don’t owe you a living, so please stop asking me!

When all that your dumb a$$ can see, are the imperfections and what-could-have-beens?

You’re still dreaming about a championship, but can’t even appreciate the little wins…

Maybe you’re like the Detroit Lions

Never even been to the Super Bowl, spending each January crying…

But you’re still in the league and anything is possible 

The trophies and rings may never materialize, but at least you ain’t in the hospital!

I know, being grateful for what you got ain’t easy

But neither is losing it all, I’m talking about you specifically ‘Yeezy’!

But we’ve all been there, like a moth to a flame

Will Smith smacking Chris Rock at the Oscars, he just could not refrain…

Self sabotage, addiction, jealousy, rage, and doing and saying other things that we ought not

Even with all of these personal and professional examples, we still must have forgot…

Whoa! Yep. We forget to be grateful for the blessing in our lives. Thanks for the reminder. Great insight.

Indeed. We sometimes spend so much time in misery over what we have not, that we fail to realize and appreciate how much we really got; how blessed we really are. ONE. Peace and Love.
