between being spoiled or being blessed?
Attitudes that change like the flip of a coin
like a light switch turned off or turned on.
A gem’s facets held up to light from the heart
no matter how dim that light shines,
turned slowly to see which side is more clear,
lets choice be the tool and the guide.
Choosing to speak words full of logic and life
or words bringing sharp stinging hail
can gentle any path laid down in life.
To connect the firm bright edge of good
with the rough darkened edge of bad ~
presents choice between forward or back.
“You can add up your blessings or add up your troubles.
Either way, you’ll find you have an abundance.”
~ Richelle E. Goodrich, Smile Anyway: Quotes,
