Array ( [sid] => 64289 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Gratitude is an Attitude [time] => 2004-09-18 23:04:57 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Gratitude is an attitude, be thankful for what you've got,
Instead of always whining about, what you have not.
Show some manners, like please and thank you, when someone opens a door,
Don't get all huffy and your pride all hurt, just smile as you walk indoor.
When someone stops to help you, along your journey in life,
Thank them very kindly, and pass along their advice.
Gratitude is an attitude, we should show towards our children,
They didn't ask to be born of us but were sent from God in Heaven.
Gratitude is an attitude, be thankful for great friends,
Show them kindness and mercy and try to make amends.
Gratitude is an attitude, be thankfull for little things,
They may seem small at the time, but quickly add up to blessings.

Gratitude is an attitude, be thankful for what you've got,
