Goodbye Blues

 

When you are finding life too tough

and feel as if you’ve had enough

There’s only one thing you can do.

You must conduct a life review.

 

Weigh up the good against the bad.

Recall the good times that you’ve had,

I am quite sure if you reflect

although life is far from perfect.

 

I rather think that you’ll agree

 if you reviewed things honestly.

Things aren’t as bad as they appeared

 and find your blues have disappeared.

 

Expose your problems to the light,

 when written down in black and white.

You can resolve them one by one

 until the very last is gone.

 

Don’t leave them festering unseen

Just give your mind a thorough clean.

If you adopt this strategy

   you’ll find it works immediately.

 

Your life takes on a rosy hue

 because you’ve changed your point of view.

 A simple change of attitude

is all you need to lift your mood.

Yes, true, it is all about perspective and getting your mind to see it a positive way, though easier said than done at times. Nice reminder.
