YOUR THOUGHTS

It is the way we think that makes our world seem empty,
Makes the world seem dull and gray and rather gloomy,
Or makes it bright and shiny, lovely colours everywhere,
So paint a rainbow in your aching mind with loving care.

If happy thoughts flow, sad clouds will roll far away,
However bad, there will be something good that day,
Let no negative thought cloud the sun from the sky,
Turn all things around to good as you pass them by.

No negative power is strong enough to engulf you,
Nothing, however bad, can make you feel blue,
For you are in control and the master of your mind,
So turn around a sadness, by doing something kind.

Negative thoughts can stop you living life to the full,
Makes you feel miserable, makes you rather dull,
Not many people like folks who always moan and groan,
That it why there are a lot of people who walk alone.

Smile though your heart is broken, it will change your life,
Smile when troubles pile up, it will help take away your strife,
However hard it may be, find a few things good each day
And you will feel so much better as you travel along life’s way.
