We’re at the beginning of 2018, who knows what the future will bring. We’ll all have our share of pleasure and pain. How we deal with it, now that’s really the thing. Some will moan for the rest of their lives, Others climb fast out of the mud. It’s ok to cry for a little while when we’re hurt and the pain goes deep. For the time comes round when we have to smile, And leave our troubles to sleep and concentrate on the good. Each morning look round you for something good, Keep that all day in your mind. I know it works, for I’ve tried it myself. Look for someone doing something kind. So greet each morning with a smile, Don’t take time to brood. Join me in 2018, looking outwards and doing something for good.
