Tonight, we have a request from cahwyguy, going out to all his LiveJournal Friends who have been having a crappy day:
When the news is all bad
When you’re sour and blue
When you start to get mad
You should do what I do
Tell yourself how lucky you are…
When your life’s going wrong
When the fates are unkind
When you’re limping along
And get kicked from behind
Tell yourself how lucky you are…
Why decry a cloudy sky?
An empty purse?
A crazy universe?
My philosophy is simple:
Things could be worse!
So be happy you’re here.
Think of life as a thrill.
And if worse comes to worse
(As we all know it will)
Thank your lucky stars
You’ve gotten this far…
And tell yourself how lucky you are.
(“How Lucky You Are”, from Seussical. Music and Lyrics by Ahrens and Flaherty)
