Gratitude.

She waltzes through life, always appearing graceful,
But the hurt in her eyes, is sometimes just too painful.

Through trials and sufferings, she smiles and looks joyful,
Concealing her doubts and worries, she is always careful.

Having had her heart broken, she remains a little doubtful,
The thought of facing pain again, has her quite fearful.

Yet she remains optimistic; she is always helpful,
She knows a good deed goes a long way; she is faithful.

Skeptics bring her down sometimes; many are quite baleful,
She stands her ground in sheer confidence, she is not shameful.

Many have caused her pain, and been very hurtful,
Her heart has ached for so long; it has been simply awful.

Still she sees good in the world, and she remains thankful,
Knowing angels still exist, puts her at ease and makes her hopeful.

She never forgets those who are kind to her, she is forever mindful,
Her heart fills with hope once again, making her feel peaceful.

After all these years, she has finally learned she is beautiful,
She is surrounded by so much love, she is eternally grateful.

A simple list to follow.

Often times in life, we forget to take inventory of everything we have. Sometimes, to stop and simply give thanks, can give one more peace of mind than anything else.

Gratitude is a funny notion; everyone has different ways of expressing it. Through a little poetic update this week, I am acknowledging my lucky stars to bring me where I am. With the whirlwind of emotions I've been feeling, this was the best way to voice it.

However, several juicy, heartfelt and contemplate-worthy topics are on the way.

Until next time, m'dears.

Hasta la-buh bye!
