Countless Blessings
 


Each day I live and breathe many miracles
I live with gratitude in my heart and soul
The most abundant gifts I am blessed with
Cannot be seen, touched or measured
Because each and every one stems from love

The love of a dedicated and understanding man
A family who supports me and holds me up
Cherished friends who remind me of my gifts
Two caring and unselfish souls, angels on Earth
Who loved the thought of helping a stranger
To live a better life, to restore site and freedom
I am incredibly blessed in indescribable ways

Every single day I bow my head in thanks
Hoping and praying that I have expressed
How humble and grateful I am to live as me
Trials, tribulations, every lesson learned
All contribute to the person I am to this day

I believe everything happens for a reason
We can choose to see the silver lining
Or remain focused on the cumulus clouds
If you count the blessings in your life
You will always be able to see the light
Be gracious for each and every blessing
And you'll discover the gifts are unending
