What Life has given me!!

"You're going to go through tough times—that's life. But I say, 'Nothing happens to you, it happens for you.' See the positive in negative events." — Joel Osteen

Life has given me so much, More than I could ever touch. It's given me the sun and stars, and the moon that lights up the dark.

It's given me the birds that sing, And the flowers in early spring. It's given me the joy of laughter, And the love that's ever after.

Life has given me the ocean's roar, And the beauty of a seashell shore. It's given me the mountains high, And the vastness of the endless sky.

It's given me the warmth of a hug, And the kindness of a friendly bug. It's given me the chance to learn, And the wisdom that I yearn for.

Life has given me the gift of time, To write this poem and make it rhyme. It's given me the chance to dream And to make my life a shining beam.

So I'll take what life has given me, And embrace it all with open glee. For life is precious, that much is true, And I'm grateful for all that it's given me.
