Making the Best Of Each Day

Outside my window, a new day I see

and only I can determine

what kind of day it will be.

It can be busy and sunny, laughing and gay,

or boring and cold, unhappy and grey.

My own state of mind

is the determined key,
for I am the only person I let myself be.
for I am only the person I let myself be.
I can be thoughtful and do all I can to help,
or be selfish and think just of myself.

I can enjoy what I do make it seem fun
or gripe and complain and make it
hard on someone.
I can be patient with those who may
not understand,
or belittle and hurt them as much as I can

But I have faith in myself
and believe what I say
and pesonally intend to make
the best if each day.
