\n FOR EVERY DAY GRATEFUL<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

Wouldn’t it be wonderful,
\n wouldn’t it be grand
\n if every day
\n everything
\n would simply go
\n my way,
\n exactly as I planned?<\/font><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

I’m afraid that’s just
\n not the way it is
\n most of the time
\n or even meant to be;
\n very few things
\n (at least for me)
\n go exactly how
\n they’re planned to be.<\/font><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

I’m sure that the Creator
\n gets a chuckle every day
\n while watching me
\n trying to get everything
\n in order and how I think
\n it’s all supposed to be.<\/font><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

So over these many years
\n (and it’s taken quite a long time),
\n if there’s one thing I’ve learned,
\n it’s to be grateful for each day
\n however it turns out,
\n for the good days
\n and the bad days
\n and for everything
\n in between,
\n when things go
\n the way I planned,
\n or however they
\n turn out to be.<\/font><\/p>\n
