A Thanksgving Poem

November 24, 2011


I believe that I quoted this poem by an unknown author in my Thanksgiving Day blog last year. However, it continues to remind us of all for which we can be thankful.


"Count your blessings instead of your crosses;


Count your gains instead of your losses;


Count your joys instead of your woes;


Count your friends instead of your foes;


Count your smiles instead of your tears;


Count your courage instead of your fears;


Count your full years instead of your lean;


Count your kind deeds instead of your mean;


Count your health instead of your wealth;


Count on God instead of yourself. "
