Life Has Blessed Me

Postby Joseph Anderson » Mon Dec 14, 2015 1:52 pm

As I gambled with this life
fame and fortune never kissed me;
Fears, frustrations, doubts and strife
seldom missed me.

Say I'm weary, say I'm sad
say at times this world depressed me,
Through these failings, let me add-
Life has blessed me

Perhaps, this would be a proper eulogy
for many, if we are thankful enough.

2010.

Thank you Joseph, maybe we have to have fears and frustrations in order to appreciate our blessings when they come..

An expressive and an honest write.

A significant, and searching eulogy. You're quite right. I suppose that many feel this way. I know that I often do. Sometimes in life, the mud pies outnumber the strawberry tarts. .
