Another Day

Another Day

When the world subjects you to its ghastly worst,

When you only have the feeling this life is cursed,

Find a hope your experiences can only get better,

Showing faith everything improves in the future !

Do not be bitter when existence runs you ragged !

As times become tough remain stoutly undaunted.

...............................................

Know there is a place where all is as it should be !

Know there are answers to an unwelcome misery.

Those around can give what you need in support !

Others have you at heart sparing many a thought.

Acknowledge the dawn of a new day shall arrive !

Light will signal you have done enough to survive.

It is important not to take a pessimistic viewpoint as that is accepting situations for what they are, being less likely to find a path out of trouble or worry. A person looking on the bright side in the vast majority of cases grasps hope in a crisis or does all in their power to improve their lot.

With time and the help of others most situations do turn out for the best in the long run !!  :)

Life should be enjoyed by the vast majority as their predicaments can be rectified or improved. Not many problems last the duration of existence.

Being healthy and happy is key to making the most of each day !!  It is good for your spirit if you count blessings.

Warmest wishes !!  :)

A positive attitude goes a long way ! If more in this world looked at the future with a belief anything can be changed for the better then perhaps it would be so ! :)

Thank you for supporting my poetry with such gracious comments.

Love and hugs. xx

:) Planting a tree to give generations to come some physical embodiment of our care for this world and our wish to leave a legacy is a beautiful gracious act ! An appreciation of our part in the scheme of things goes a long way to determining our worth !

This generation must be remembered for making a difference when it mattered standing for virtue against those of dubious moral integrity.

Life is love and love is life !!  :)

Wishing you all the best.

In a world which is struggling to cope with minority opinion based on prejudice and division being allowed mainstream coverage it is refreshing to return to core values which hold souls together creating a collective responsibility which is productive and reassuring !!

We must take a positive stance on the future condemning minority views trying to undermine all that makes life worth living.

Thank you for reading my poetry !!

Warmest wishes to you.

You honour me with your kind words. There are some imaginative established writers on Cosmofunnel with varying styles to help "new blood" discover the spectrum of creativity in poetry.

To keep writing and to read others work encourages an evolving method of tackling topics through poems. A poem is a statement of your souls interests and ideas capturing its essence. Each poet must find their way to a place they feel most comfortable expressing the inner self readily and freely.

Wishing you success in your endeavours. Take care.  :)

Kindness goes further than people realize. I'm glad you are moved by my comment. I just received an acceptance letter to the publication of my poetry book. "You Are Not Alone", it portrays the fact that most of us, travel the same broken road. Also the fact that we are closer to eachother than we think. Thank you for the words to ponder.
