Harassed by the slaps of misfortunes
I decide to count my blessings for a change
Have I got a single blossom of happiness?
I'm surprised, pleasantly though
I find myself surrounded by
Some pretty flowers of...bliss!

Delete...counting your blessings is what many used to ignore... for most people blessings are counted only when in quantity... not realizing what they're missing for possessing such kind of thinking... blessings are widely spread everywhere... we just need the right appreciation & a selfless heart... smiles...
