Blessings

Encrusted dishes fill the sink,

only plain faucet water to drink,

laundry piles up each day,

bills, bills, bills ~ a lot to pay

on my feet to earn my keep,

garbage tossed all in a heap,

house has quite its share of mess,

what can I say ~

 

I’m truly blessed.

Author's Note

There's a poem by an unknown writer called "Thank God for Dirty Dishes". This got me thinking of all the hidden blessings...

really ...all the things you mentioned...might seem like a drudgery...but thank God, for that drudgery....we know we are alive...

and we are always much more fortunate than many and need to count our blessings.

Exactly. When I want to complain about these things, I have to stop and think - at least I have a home, and food, and a job... Alive, indeed. Thank you, Jacob.

It is those little things that make the world go round, just so many don't see it.

Yep... Thanks, Dale, and happy Thanksgiving!

So true and well spoken. We have so many blessings in disguise that people don't know them or appreciate them. Like they say count your blessings instead of keeping up with the Jones...Bravo

[Rita L. Sev]

Exactly - blessings abound! Thanks so much, Sami!
