GOOD MORNING MESSAGE #74

Gratefulness is a virtue worth having.

From the first of June, 2018, I started writing Good Morning messages in the form of poems (Please read: ‘Good Morning Message #1‘).

The last such message was: Good Morning Message #73‘.

Good morning Friends,

Of all the virtues that one must possess,
Gratefulness brings the most contentment;
If you have it you are rid of undue stress,
Caused by others-have-more resentment.

When you thank God and others for all,
That they gave, did and are doing for you;
You do yourself a favour, by no means small,
And make others thank for your goodness too.

Lets begin the day by thanking our Creator,
For giving us the gift of yet another day;
There is no blessing that is at all greater,
Than that, on earth, longer we can stay.

Having gratefulness also may signify,
We are content with our situation;
What we don’t have doesn’t make us cry,
What we have gives us total elation.

Thanking others is just to endorse,
What they did and are doing for us;
It also does in our minds reinforce,
That acceptance is always without a fuss.

I thank you today for being what you are,
You make my life content and complete;
I see in each one of you a superstar,
Because of you life is happy and sweet.

Have a grateful day today.

I have done a long stint in the Indian Navy that lasted for nearly thirty seven years; I rose as far as my somewhat rebellious and irreverent nature allowed me to. On retirement, in Feb 2010, the first thing that occurred to me, and those around me, was that I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (you will find an article with this title in this blog) and hadn't lost all my noodles and hence thought of a blog titled 'This 'n That'. I later realised that every third blog is called 'This 'n That' and changed the name to 'Sunbyanyname'. I detest treading the beaten track. This blog offers me to air 'another way' of looking at things. The idea is not just to entertain but also to bring about a change. Should you feel differently, you are free to leave your comments. You can leave comments even when you agree and want to share your own experience about the topic of the blog post. Impudent or otherwise, I have never been insousciant and I am always concerned about the betterment of community, nation and the world. I hope the visitors of this blog would be able to discern it.
