Think Happiness

[150 words] Think of the things that make you happyNot of the things that make you sad;Think of the fine and true in mankind,Not its sordid side and bad;Think of the blessings that surround you,Not the ones that are denied;Think of the virtues of your friendships,Not the weak and faulty side;Think of the good of you that’s spoken,Not some cruel, hostile word;Think of the days of health and pleasures,Not the days of woe and pain;Think of the days alive with sunshine,Not the dismal days of rain;Think of the hopes that lie before you,Not the waste that lies behind;Think of the treasures you have gathered,Not the ones you’ve failed to find;Think of the service you may renderNot of serving self alone;Think of the happiness of others,And in this you’ll find your own!
