I may not know what lies ahead

Or what each day will bring.

But, I can choose how I react

To each and everything.

Why should I give my peace away

When someone's been unkind?

For I can choose to be upset

Or keep my peace of mind.

The choice is always up to me

For I control my thoughts.

And I can live in peace and joy or

Fill my day with doubts.

So if my day's not going well

The way I think it should,

I simply count my blessings

And focus on my good.
